Current mood: inspired
I have been wanting to write a poem about Mia for awhile now but just couldn't find the time to do it. Also, to be honest, I lost my poetic ability many years ago. I just never had the inspiration I once had in high school. When I used to write poetry the words and thoughts flew from my head onto paper at lightening speed. I just opened my mind, thought of my inspiration and the words just flowed. If you ever look at my rought drafts there are very few changes from the final draft. Whatever came to me, I would write down and didn't really need to change anything. I wouldn't call it a talent, but it was something I was proud about. Again, after high school, it seemed that my ability to write poetry just disappeared. I wrote Adrian poems here and there but nothing was the same calibur of my high school writtings. The last big one I wrote was the one I wrote for my Grandma back in 1996 the day I found out she passed away. Since then, the mind flow I got to create poems just fizzled..... until tonight. I finally made myself slow down, sit and think about Mia and like magic it came to me. I just picked up a pen and in about 10 mins came up with this. Hope you like it, I just felt like sharing...
My Little Angel is Turning One....
I am so amazed on how fast time flys...
I still see my tiny newborn when I look into your eyes
Your smile and laughter brightens my everyday....
I love you more than words can ever say.
You are an little angel sent from heaven...
I received the greatest gift from God that day on 7/11
Mia, I always want you to know that you are everything to me...
My love for you is deeper than the deepest sea
As I sit back and watch you grow...
There is one thing I always want you to know
No matter what the years bring and whatever you grow up to be......
You will always be my little butterfly princess to me
