To the outside world we all grow old. But not to brothers and sisters. We know each other as we always were. We know each other’s hearts. We share private family jokes. We remember family feuds and secrets, family griefs and joys. We live outside the touch of time. – Clara Ortega

Is one all poets have outgrown:
The poetry, innate, untold,
Of being only four years old.”

“Imagination in full bloom
a fairytale world inside a room
dancing, singing, laughing out loud
always eager for a crowd
free to dream, to pretend, to play
little one, who will you be today?”

I don’t understand him at all, yet I understand him completely.
We are so different, yet we are exactly alike.
He is a puzzle to me. . . an unsolvable puzzle.
But love? It goes without saying.
He grabbed my heart with his first breath.
He is my son. I am his Mama.

“It’s like it happened overnight
We’re always wrong, they’re always right
We used to be the ones breakin’ the rules
Now we’re just mothers
Yeah, we’re just fathers
Of teenage daughters”

“On the night you were born,
the moon shone with such wonder
that the stars peeked in
to see you
and the night wind whispered,
‘Life will never be the same.’
Because there had never been
anyone like you…
ever in the world.”
From On the Night You Were Born by Nancy Tillman
