Our first night


To Pascale Emily

September 9, 2007


I remember holding you, so small and warm looking at me with those big blue eyes and smiling

Your golden hair and soft skin so perfect and delicate..
your little hands and tiny feet..

I remember the silence and your soft sounds as I contemplated you
and gave God thanks.. my first born, my daughter
the best thing I ever did.. drinking my milk and falling asleep..

I held you close and kissed you my tiny treasure, glowing like a golden peach warmed by the summer's sun
You slept safe in my arms and I called you Pascale..
love was all around us and outside the snow fell....
