mother and child/ my kids

'i look at you and see reflections of me.
i look again and i've disappeared.
you're part of me and i'm part of you.
we are co-mingled and yet stand alone.
there is no other miracle quite like
a mother and child.'




'they know me in a way no one else ever has.
they open me to things i never knew existed.
they drive me to insanity and push me
to my depths.
they are the beat of my heart,
the pulse in my veins,
and the energy in my soul.
they are my kids.'
