I am a writer. My passion is poetry. I feel words connect people together and help us to understand the feelings we share.

"Heavenly Birthday"

Missing her
with an ache so empty,
a sadness, deep in my heart,
hoping she senses my love
inside heavens gate.

I picture her
on her first heavenly birthday
smiling and laughing,
celebrating with dad by her side
tasting a variety of cakes,
with the angels giving her a halo
to go with her angel wings.
