Letter to My Child

Letter to My Child

(Sorry if I'm over posting. Going to bed now lol. One for ma kid. And a painting I really love by Mary Cassatt.)

You ask if I believe in God. 
I think He's left us all alone 
like sweaty children in a mall, 
searching for our mothers. 

But one glance 
at your tenderly upturned face, 
I can only breathe of white angels, 
gossamer reunions, 
answers to your silver secrets. 

A soft corsage of light 
haloes your head. 
All the sweet bouquets 
interred in me long ago 
you've made blossom, 
turn pink once more. 

I watch as you soar delicately 
through those gates 
of mesh and pearls. 
Then I kiss you, whisper, 
You are God for me.
