To Brittany (Free verse) by amanda_dcosta

I don’t know why life's so tough on you, Little angel, precious child. Why dark clouds want to take away that sunshine smile That so befits your cherub face. Why thunderstorms want to chase you To the forests dark and deep Or why the night comes quickly by to Scare you till you scream. Yet through it all I’m sure there is A gap, a vent, a tiny hole… That makes your innocent rays of gold Touch a patch of land that needs you most Perhaps a wink, a smile, a word… Who knows. You might perhaps touch my soul.

Hi Al. It's good to see you back. We missed you on PR. And thanks for the applause and the ten. Am glad to see it makes a difference atleast to one soul.

Am now praying for some inspiration on what to write for a little girl who's suffering from Down's syndrome, but was also affected by partial paralysis since the age of three months. She can neither sit nor stand, and has to be attended upon for everything. I believe she lives in the U.S. and will turn five yrs this 26th (May).
