Array ( [sid] => 116729 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => You Are My Strength [time] => 2006-03-20 12:53:55 [hometext] => I wrote this to my mum and dad after a very tough time i had been through [bodytext] => I sat thinking for hours
About how to explain
That you are the padlock
Securing my chain.

You are the lifeline
The roots to my tree
You are the backbone
That's strengthenning me.

You give me such courage
While holding my hand
When life isn't going
Quite like I had planned.

Thanks for supporting
And being my guide
For drying my teardrops
Every time I have cried.

And you, beth, are your boy's Strength! Keep on doin' what you're doin', 'cause I'm reading a story book life with a very happy ending. Good work; I hope you shared this love and honesty with your dad before he passed. On to the rest of your poems!
