Best Familydream Poems
Maddie is born and Moki is OK
and the future for this very moment
looks bright. We begin a brand new day
with fresh new hopes and much light comment,
we dream of all the days that have gone by,
we dream of all the days that are to come,
and all past mistakes now may
be seen as irrelevant and no one
can imagine anything but good
coming from ten tiny fingers and toes.
So we hold our breath and knock on wood,
for the future coming clad in roses.
Maddie is born and Moki is OK
and my life is blessed for another day.
Color me a picture of what you dream of…
Color me another picture of your fears….
Some would bring a picture of spiders
Others a picture of the dark….
If I drew you a picture of my dream and fear
It would be a picture of you
And a picture of myself….
In either order….
And both deserves reflection,
deserves much thought…
