Three Moments I Shan'T Forget
There are three moments I shan't forget,
mostly filled with love ...... yet one of regret.
The first glance we shared I memorized his eyes,
the way they sent those shivering chills down my spine.
Now twenty - two years later I am still grateful he is mine,
and with every single soft touch my longing for him intensifies.
When I remember our wedding day it’s like our romance magnifies.
Then reminiscing on the moment of my daughter’s miraculous birth.
The struggles were hard, yet when I held Ella Rose I felt the love.
She was everything and more that I could ever even dream of,
showing me how to be nurturing full of so much self-worth.
Even at twelve years old Ella is my wonderful mirth.
I could never forget the day my sister died tragically.
Taking her own life made me feel so much survivor's guilt.
We shared a strong bond and on love our foundation was built.
I remember the last happy yet sad conversation she had with me,
but I can’t get out of my weary head thoughts of her wanting to be free.
These three life moments in my life I shall never be able to lose sight of.
For they all had a perpetual impact on how I see my myself today.
I have had more delightful memories than times of disarray,
and am grateful for all the happiness and endless love.
One day I will recall many moments from up above.
I need not worry for life will bring more
memories of joy that I shall adore.
