Just for this morning, I am going to step over the laundry, and pick you up and take you to the park to play. Just for this morning, I will leave the dishes in the sink, and let you teach me how to put that puzzle of yours together. Just for this afternoon, I will unplug the telephone and keep the computer off, and sit with you in the backyard and blow bubbles. Just for this afternoon, I will not yell once, not even a tiny grumble when you scream and whine for the ice cream truck, and I will buy you one if he comes by. Just for this afternoon, I won't worry about what you are going to be when you grow up, or second guess every decision I have made where you are concerned. Just for this afternoon, I will let you help me bake cookies, and I won't stand over you trying to fix them. Just for this afternoon, I will take us to McDonald's and buy us both a Happy Meal so you can have both toys. Just for this evening, I will hold you in my arms and tell you a story about how you were born and how much I love you. Just for this evening, I will let you splash in the tub and not get angry. Just for this evening, I will let you stay up late while we sit on the porch and count all the stars. Just for this evening, I will snuggle beside you for hours, and miss my favorite TV shows. Just for this evening when I run my finger through your hair as you pray, I will simply be grate! ful that God has given me the greatest gift ever given. I will think about the mothers And fathers who are searching for their missing children, the mothers and fathers who are visiting their children's graves instead of their bedrooms, and mothers and fathers who are in hospital rooms watching their children suffer senselessly, and screaming inside that they can't handle it anymore. And when I kiss you good night I will hold you a little tighter, a little longer. It is then, that I will thank God for you, and ask him for nothing, except one more day............. |

lovely! a mother's love cannot be described. it cannot be explained. a mother's love is always in your heart, in your soul. when u are dead, and gone, your mothers love will protect your soul, and your grave. even if the world is against you, if the going gets tough, your mother will support you, and when you rest your head in her lap, the world around you gets blissful. you forget all your pains and your sorrows. mothers stay hungry just to see you happy and well fed. she always hopes to have you smile. because she is the one who brought you in this huge world, and she will help you go through it. |

dream_girl didi, your poem was absolutely wonderful. i can't say keep it up cuz it'll probably be disrespecting you as you are much older than me. i can say that with ease because i am pretty young. but i'll say please write some more poems! :) p.s. i am a girl o.k.? please don't pay attention to them. |

The Poet's name is Sally Meyer and the poem was to her autistic child. Do a Google search and you will see the COMPLETE version of the poem and other poems by her. e.g. http://trainland.tripod.com/poems1.htm (near the middle of the page) |
