Take My Heart With You


To my lovely youngest child and daughter Cindy-Anna who is 33 years old today, oh my goodness how times fades into time. Happy birthday baby mine love always Mum and Star xxx

One clear but cold October morn
You finally came home
I`d waited oh so patiently
Now so much time has gone

Thirty-three years, can`t believe
You still look like a teen
Yet all these years have flown on by
As if they`d never been.

You were such a girly girl
Your favourite colour pink
Barbie dolls and talcum snow
To form dear Santa`s print

Upon your carpet as we crept
Big John and I together
Sometimes it was me with Da
Shh we`d say together

As you grew, life sometimes tough
You fought to be so strong
As standing by my side one day
You were where you belong

You so ready to protect
Your Mum, `though only six
When that wumen doon the stairs
Was playing all her tricks

Now you are a woman grown
But in my heart I still
See my bonnie baby girl
And I always will

I`m proud of all that you`ve achieved
The magic in your voice
The struggle to succeed in life
You made success your choice

Go into the big wide world
Make all your dreams come true
And as you wander on through life
Please take my heart with you.

Today my baby, happy times
I pray are yours to come
A happy birthday darling
Forever from your Mum

Penniluck McGinnis
