My Sweet Missy

MY SWEET MISSY

                                        I gaze at you with glee,
                                       and feel a great pleasure
                                   for having a daughter like you.
                                    You fill my heart with delight
                                  for all the things you do for me.

                              Such a sweetheart for showering me
                             love and attention in every little things
                                 you do that mean so much to me,
                                   as well as the extravagant ones
                             that I’m so thankful for and appreciate. 

                               I’m so grateful for all the assistance
                                you are giving me wholeheartedly
                           in editing and reviewing my literary work
                           before they get published and processing
                                 the self-publication of my second
                              poetry book ‘‘That Thing Called Life”.
.
                             I will always treasure the little things
                         you do, like ordering food I like and enjoy,
                           buying jewelries and accessories I love,
                             as well as trinkets, stationaries, pens
                         and taking me to places for leisure and fun.

                         I will hold in my heart our Mud/Spring Bath
                        with full body massage in Calistoga you give
                          for Mother’s Day and my birthday, as well
                          as our happy hour and strolls afterwards.

                          I will always remember the Alaska cruise
                      for the two of us you gave me for my birthday
                    and including me in your family’s Puerto Vallarta
                             vacations, I truly enjoy with the kids.

                                 I appreciate your quintessence
                             and so delighted to be your mother.
                       I am so proud of the daughter you become.
             I just wish you live near and not hundreds of miles away.             

                                  Thank you. Thank you, Melissa,
                                               my sweet Missy.
