The One Angel

You always called me
the love of your life
I wish I could give my heartbeats to you,
I wish I could give you my healthier joints,
You are my Amore,
You are my hope,
I want to be there,
I pray to be there,
I only want to care for you,
to be your guide in time of greatest need,
I have been crude,
I have been rude,
I despise that-
I do,
I want heaping piles of love for you,
flowers of light and health,
I want to quell your pain and anguish,
To wrap your unnoticed wounds,
I love you Nonny,
you are my every heartbeat,
you are the one angel-
through my life.

A very touching tribute, full of depth and emotion. I agree with Carrie's words. We cannot change the pas, but the future--we can change. Regards, Sara

I'm sure she feels the love pouring out of your heart. We may not be able to change the past, but we can show our love and kindness today....and that's what you are doing in this beautiful poem.......Fondly, Carrie
