In the summer of 2007
You were in Holy Cross Hospital
Awaiting my birth instead of celebrating yours
The connecting cord to my mother was severed
Allowing a better bond to grow
In the spring of 2009
Barely two and innocent, I met my best friend
Hand in hand, eldest niece and I
Blooming as cherry blossoms do,
Our bond strengthening each and every season
Jaazyel, Miracle, Deon, Rae, Ky, Vaeh
One after the other, my true family grew
Making bottles, changing pampers
And the maker of my true family was you
Eight bonds in counting
In the winter of 2023
When they couldn’t protect me
You did, you were there
Welcoming me into your home
A moment I’ll never forget
Now, I’m my last moments of childhood
You’re here with me, I’m safe with you
From sister to savior to awesome lady
You’re amazing, don’t change, big sister
Happy Mother’s day.
