THIS POEM WAS MY FIRST PUBLISHED POEM. IT IS WRITTEN IN DEDICATION TO MY SON DARION JORDAN DELOREY. BORN MAY 30TH, 1996- DIED JANURARY 10TH 1997. THANKS TO MY D.J., OR I PROBABLY WOULDN'T HAVE STARTED TO PURSUE POETRY AS I HAVE. ALL MY LOVE TO MY ANGEL BABY.
in one morning he shed light onto my darkend shadows.
in one morning he became my angel of peace.
in one morning he showed me strength
could prevail over my weakness
and in one morning he taught me parenthood
patience, endurance, brotherhood, sisterhood
and most of all love.
on one mourning
our great little prosperous one left us.
on one mourning i cried
until my eyes were two swollen slits of pain
and on that mourning i felt utterly lost and hopeless.
yes..
but,
in one morning
he taught us yet another priceless lesson.
on this morning i feel embraced
by his powerful memory.
on this morning we forgive ourselves
we forgive life and death
and on all mornings we remember our teacher
our baby, our son, our love.
