A while ago I was sifting through some items I saved from my son Dylan's 10th grade English class. I came across a poem assignment he did so I used it in a collage. The picture on the collage is of my maternal grandmother holding my mother in Germany around 1930. I forgot who the others were. The other child may be my Aunty Hanne.
Here is the poem my son wrote which is on the bottom left of the collage in transparency:
A Personal Poem
this daylight cannot compare
to the moon's silver stare
but i'll still be here
when the twilight comes
the trees will continue to sway
because the wind is at play
and it will continue to cheer
when the twilight comes
i can still hear the voices
as the sky rejoices
and sheds a peaceful tear
when the twilight comes
as we lay here tonight
it will be your turn to recite
and make it incere
when the twilight comes

what a gifted son, I love that poem, and how truly proud you must be of both your children, we enjoyed the sweet picture of Sister in Mattie's arms. Come see us... Linda and Ludmil
