from kim goldner:
the storm inside settles
the intensity stands still
but the pain lingers
the day has been tough
none of the girls had my back
my friends no longer
moving on from here
grateful for all i do have
my heart mends slowly
from amanda b:
Being held hostage
by snoring little people
Better than dishes...
from randa:
Your smile is my joy
Your tears are my deepest pain
Ache for endless smiles
Sleepy sighs echo
Your snuggle my deep comfort
Warmth envelopes us
Your thoughts my future
Ocean deep eyes my mirror
Snow blond hair my past
Her first word our pride
Her first steps we hold our breath
Her laughter our great joy
from kim noyes:
so smart and funny
your eyes so green and speckled pure
honored to be mom
from kim goldner:
you smile perfectly
my heart aches to keep your soul
pure, safe, strong, loving
my son, my sun, mine
i will honor your spirit
for my new life's work
how i longed for you
so many years without joy
so many tears cried
my scar is healing
that soft place from which you came
forever, your home

from dee presley:
Her timid placed hands
the glow and whirl of ride bright
Breathless jubilance
these shimmer with the power of your love, kim. thank you.
