A Poem for National Poetry Month

It's National Poetry Month, so I'm posting the only kind of poetry I can muster, another song I've written.  This one is about being a mother, starting in pregnancy and ending where a mother must let go...


WHAT COULD I DO BUT LOVE YOU?
Sitting on star
Dreaming of your face
And your heart
I'm waiting on a star
And I'm smiling, because you are the wish
That came true, you’re my wish upon a star

The world caved in, My feet could not feel the floor
So brand new, how could there be this much more?
When I met you, what could I do but love you?

Your hands they change
They're no longer tiny in mine
I want to hold fast, but I have to let you grow
How much fear do I own, how much love
how much pride? When it comes to you

The world caved in, My feet could not feel the floor
So brand new, how could there be this much more?
When I met you, what could I do but love you?
