20 months

on April 27 i began to write a poem about what 20 month without you was like it has vanished into the universe.

so here i am today trying to find it and nearly giving up. 
when i found it. once again i am amazed at your power to remind me that we are ALWAYS together you and i.

Olive Lucy my precious beauty i miss you very much.

for Olive Lucy on her 20 month birthday. 

twenty months have come and gone
i can not believe it's been this long
seasons have passed and will come again
we still cry but we try to be strong

we carry you close, 'tis not a strain
you reside not on this plane
but in our hearts for evermore
our precious girl and her dark curly mane

you opened a small door
within my heart, it is you i'll always adore
how i wish that  you where here today
and not residing on a universally distant shore

still feels like 'twas just yesterday 
that you  first took my breath away
with your long lean limbs, and musky smelling hair
you are with me everyday

in the air, everywhere
you compel me to share
your beautiful peaceful light and love
which has saved me from despair

we often speak of 
your special soul above
it been too long
our sweet girl Olive 

twenty months have come and gone
we can not believe it's been this long
seasons have passed and will come again
we still cry but we try to be strong


we love you little girl,
momma, dad and OS
