Baby B [For Mira]

I remember your shining eyes
your little smile.
watching you wiggle and nestle
into the folds of your mothers arms.

I remember when you punched me
so softly, right in the nose.
and when, on one of the many nights
of traveling to see you my precious
we stopped for coffee. I won you a Care Bear.

I remember reading "Guess How Much I Love You"
Over and over, every night to you.

I remember when your kidneys started to fail.
I remember when you broke my heart,
and said it was ok.

I remember you. My sweetest Mira Boo.
