 Penniluck's legacy

She Crossed the Pond


To Stephanie my daughter Cindi`s partner on her 30th birthday which is the 31/1/15 lots of love and hugs always Penni xxx

Dark hair and eyes and skin of peach
Gentle drawl within her speech
She crossed the pond with bated breath
Tears fell for all the family left
But she knew that she would find
Across the water love so kind
That it would wipe her tears away
And invite her love to stay
Bonnie Scotland was her aim
Now at last she has come hame
Los Vegas where she took a gamble
When she started on this ramble
She is happy and at last
Can leave behind a saddened past
Look forward to being brave and strong
For her demons now have gone
Yes she misses family still
And I know she always will
But in Scotland of the brave
To herself no longer slave
To pain that hurt her long ago
And I wanted her to know
She is welcome she is strong
And it won`t be very long
Before she says oh yes I`m free
At last I know I can be me
Welcome lassie to this shore
Love your partner evermore
Give to her and you`ll receive
So much love you won`t believe
From today live life with love
Sent to you from up above
Make this year a brand new start
Live it love with all your heart.

Penniluck McGinnis
