beloved birth momma
photo framed in jewelry
i wear your image
given name: Gladys
best friends nicknamed you “Happy”
do you smile at me?
i was sixteen months
when you were taken from us
my heart remembers
In honor of my first mother with whom i share a valentine birthday.

to have that spirit living within.. one you know but yet not know.. has to be a special feeling.
