Your eyes shine bright
Those beautiful emerald eyes
Smiling you faced the world
Just as I did then
You are my fondest memories
Of the darkest path called childhood
The day you were born I promised you
That you wouldn't ever have to worry
I knew then our paths would part
So I gave you a piece of my heart
A happy little child you were
Strong willed as I was as well
I see your faces every day
I hear your happy laughs
And this my sister and brother shows
I kept my promise
My love travels many miles
Though my heart is no longer whole
It's spread across the U.S.
An follows you both wherever you go.

An btw.. I love to hear how people like or don't like my poetry.. I see lots of people read it.. yet nobody takes the few seconds it would take to tell me what they think.. Please try to take that few seconds once in awhile. Thanks much
