 That Lucky Little Girl


~HAPPY~
~MOTHERS DAY~
~Thank You Mom ~~I Love You~
SultryRose's Signatures


As a little girl, I always held on to you,
Crying out loud, never wanting to let go.
When I think back I wonder what was I so afraid of,
And remember, finally agreeing to go to school.

Feeling so strange on that very first day,
Your hand slipped slowly out of mine,
and into another strange lady's hand.
I felt so much alone, lost and so afraid.

I did not know what was happening,
where was I going and why.
And when you were no longer in sight,
I thought I was lost from you with fright.

That little girl is still here within me.
I have figured out many things in life since then.
The most important thing is that as I grew older,
I learned what a Mother's love truly means.

You have always held me so close to your heart .
Each time hearing your heart beating next to mine.
It is through you that I was gifted the knowledge,
to accept life's giving and life's taking.

No other person in my life can ever replace,
the caring and sharing that you have filled my life with.
You are the perfect example of the true meaning of love.
I thank God for being that lucky little girl.

You, Mother, came back for me,
and always kept me in your arms,
as you still do, no matter what!

Happy Mother's Day
God Bless you!

your daughter,
Yana
