Array ( [sid] => 5829 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => My Wish [time] => 2002-10-29 17:00:00 [hometext] => This poem was written for my birthmother after I found her this year.
[bodytext] => When I was a little girl
I would wish upon a star
And I would always wonder
If you were near or very far.

There were so many questions
In which you had the answers to.
So many things
That only you knew.

As I got a little older
Those thoughts faded away
They weren’t my top priority
I just lived day to day.

It’s not that I didn’t want to know
Or that I didn’t care,
There were other dreams to live
Not dwelling on what’s not fair.

I had a wonderful life
And my mom and dad were great.
College and kids of my own
Were other dreams I wanted to create.

I made those dreams happen
Everything had come true.
The only thing missing
Was being able to find you.

I was much older now
And I stopped and looked in the sky
There was another bright star
That stopped me and caught my eye.

I knew I had a dream
And knew what I was looking for
I didn’t want much
Just a little bit more.

I made one last wish
And closed my eyes
I just wanted to know
About my family ties.

Now I can say
That my wish has come true.
The wonderful wish
Of finally finding you.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
