A Poem from the The Heartbeat of One Drum Collection
Amanda and Her Annabel - Viewed 365 Times
David Devaney

November 15, 2007
There is a special tenderness
Of mother and her child
A sense of true serenity
As both hearts are beguiled
For many months they grew with love
In close proximity
Then when the sunlight touched them both
There was great ecstasy
Amanda and her Annabel
Have both begun to grow
In fantasy and happiness
Their lives now better flow
They spend long hour’s side by side
So much is there to learn
With things unknown and never seen
Experience they yearn
And Michael diligent and kind
Is always by their side
His smile end to end reveals
A special father’s pride
Time is spent in nurturing
Counting stars at night
Strolls about the neighborhood
With things that do delight
Quiet walks around the house
Just mom and Annabel
Smiles whispers lots of hugs
And tales of life to tell
There is a sense of comfort too
As daily things do change
Perhaps a word or two will come
As thoughts they rearrange
So precious and magnificent
This first month here on earth
Life’s patterns and its fantasies
Are shared from day of birth
