    Work in progress, not finished :

    I bless you for the music
    I bless you for the flower
    I bless you for hummingbirds
    I bless you for funfair of reminiscence
    for children in the playparks
    I bless you for childhood carousels
    I bless you for every moment we grew up as mother and daughter

    I love you for fountains
    of childhood dreams,
    these pictures that are engraved in my soul,
    these candles that are going to burn forever
    in your eternal temple in my heart.

    I bless you for your courage,
    taking death like a spoonful of coughing syrup
    I use to give you when you had cold
    I bless you for oceans that now I see in your soul
    I bless you for eternity that now
    looks
    like you.

    Life is a just a journey, where one ends,another
    begins; is there any truth behind these lies?
    I have heard many philosophies, but I only care
    about those tears fall from my Mama's eyes.

    In the Garden of Eden, everything restores;
    only love flows in the air, and nothing harms.
    I have felt like heaven a million times on earth,
    whenever my mother embraced me in her arms.

    Tell me, if he really holds that much power to
    turn a fruitless stone into a piece of edible bread,
    then why in this world full of happiness,sadness
    surrounds my Mum, and worries sit on her head.

    Dear God, I don't need those thousand lives of
    mysteries, could you please do me a favor?
    Let me live in my Mom's heart, grant me just one
    last wish; in her nest, I always feel braver.

    Dear Andrea, I am just an ordinary writer. I don't have any copyright issues. Anyone can use my poems anywhere.
    So far, I wrote only two poems for your daughter Robyn and every single word of those poems belongs to her. You and Robyn are the inspiration behind those poems. Please do whatever necessary to bring smile on her face and make her comfortable as much as you can.
    Thank you!

    Andrea, you know my answer. In truth, I would be absolutely honoured.

    Love to you both,

    Dear Andrea. I can't believe you even think you should ask. ( haha how extremely courteous you are, I believe though)
    Fist of all you can recite any of my poems, any were as you please, and that would be the sense of honor for me. Never mind reacting them for Robyn's ... That would be one of the highlights of my life. I also think everyone feels the same around here. You could even make a booklet and publish any of them that you like, as, I don't know: P&Q's memorabilia of Robyn The beautiful bird(?? or anything like that) Haha even though, if you do so , I would be embarrassed by my contributions.
    I am so humbled by the few words which I put forward, that I do not think they are even worthy of your attention. I put them forward as raw as they came to my heart because I did not feel to polish them or use the poetical method, or add sophistication to them. I just simply did not feel like that ( I also appreciate those who did not share that feeling with me - this is how I am, I do not prescribe it to anyone else-)
    I just know my humble words are not worthy for your occasion, so I did not even feel to say anything here, though later on I felt I should clarify.

    much love

    Darren you have to draw another wing
    No one could fly with one :) :)

    I modify this old poem of mine for this occasion:

    <<I Love You So>>

    Little bird
    Little bird
    melting your heart of gold
    in the mold of my hold:
    I do not love you for me
    I love you for you
    I love you free
    I love you so
    so I let you go.

    It is not my quest to trap you or cage your zest
    I do not want you fade in the nest of my ribcage
    Behind the bars of my chest
    paging through my age.

    I like you to fly
    I want you to glow
    like rainbows
    pirouetting on the tip of your toe
    soaring so high
    out of my window.

    I love you so
    so I let you go.

    I can't
    (for Andrea)

    I can't form words,
    I can't form thoughts,
    my mind is in a fog,
    can't seem to find my way out...
    -
    I want to hold on,
    I want to take your place,
    this room is filling with smoke,
    it scars up my lungs,
    I'm starting to choke...
    -
    I rail at the heavens,
    I curse at the hell,
    I shake my head at the doctors.
    unable to make you well...
    -
    I have loved you from the start,
    my beautiful baby bird,
    splashed with rays of sunshine,
    that has always warmed my heart...
    -
    We had our days in the sun,
    did we not?
    Now the winter sun has come in low,
    no more endless summer days
    for us to while away...
    -
    I can't think of the end,
    I can't think of you being gone,
    don't know how I'll mend this shattered heart,
    when my baby bird
    no longer sings her song...

    For Andrea, the purest earth mother I have ever known. I won't pretend to fully understand how devastating this whole thing is. I just know as a mom myself, my heart breaks for you and your family. Hugs my friend-
