Valentine Poem for Emily and William
You grew inside me
For nine long months
We cried and laughed
Watching that little bump
It expanded and bloomed
Like some abstract view
This gift from God
The miracle of you
Blessed by love
Not once, but twice
Some puppy dog tails,
Lots of sugar and spice
Rich beyond dreams
With the sought after pair
Our family complete
No more room to spare
Each one of you posessing
The power to hold,
The capacity to sustain us
As we grow old
Forever engraved
Right from the start
Created through love
Upon our hearts
FT&PD

Kathryn says
very beautiful Suzanne! You always had a knack with words and writing! 🙂
MapleMouseMama says
Aww thank you Kathryn, I appreciate that. I have been thinking a lot about other forms of writing, but poetry can be very personal ( and hard to write, depending on the subject), but it is also cathartic and freeing in some respects. This one felt right 🙂 Hope all is well in your world!

Thank you so much Brenda, I appreciate it and that is exactly how I felt. It was hard to put into the right words and I still feel it is inadequate, but I am new to poetry, LOL. Hopefully there will be more for me to share down the road 🙂

MapleMouseMama says
Aww, thanks so much MaryBeth, I appreciate that 🙂 I have not dabbled in the poetry field that much and usually when I do I keep it private, but this one meant a lot to me so…
Hope all is well with you in the frozen North!

That’s a lovely poem; it seems to really convey your true feelings. You just made me miss writing poems!
Channel Imperial says
Nice! The poem reminds me of high school. I shut down everybody and just start writing poems on my notebook or anywhere. It’s something I do most of the time, even more than talking to people!

Debbie White Beattie says
This is a fabulous poem, do you do creative writing often or did you go to school for it because you sound well practiced. I haven’t got a creative bone in me but I always wished I did but my biggest talent is comedian. At least I can get people to laugh !
kathy downey says
You certainly have am amazing talent,this is so beautiful !
