I have so many things to say,

and I thought you should know.

At how much you have meant to me,

and have helped me as I’ve grown.

To my mother, father, sister, brother,

teacher, cousin, friend,

stranger, lover, passer byer,

I’ll love you till the end.

We may have gone our separate ways

in this life we play,

but your happiness of joy and love

are still with me everyday.

Thank you for the smiles

and the warmth of your embrace.

Thank you for the love you gave,

for your beauty and your grace.

Thank you for the laughter

and the times that we had shared.

Thank you for seeing me as “me”,

and showing that you cared.

For I have grown soo much from you

and had not realized it till now.

So as for thanks to what you’ve done

I give this solemn vow.

I will continue to carry you,

in my heart as I did before.

The difference is that now its deeper,

and embedded in its core.

***Winter’s Warmth***

To the snow that brought me snow days

and time away from school.

The snow that gave me a trip down a hill

and had me laughing like a fool.

The snow that fell upon my tongue

and filled me with such glee.

Snow forts, snow fights and snowmen

were all built by you and me.

Today the snow is a bother

to those who can no longer see,

That the snow can bring happiness

if we allow ourselves to be free!

~Be a child again and have fun with the snow ;)~
