LikeYou (to Bean)

Walking the

Shore sea

Glass and

Shiny shells

Glint in

Sunlight holding

Them wondering

What they

Were before

They were

Treasures to

Me just

Like you

Morning (to Bean)

Soon you

Will awake

And rub

Sleep from

Your eyes

And turn

To me

With that

Fresh morning

Smile dragging

Yourself away

And returning

With cups

Of coffee

A dash

Of cream

For me

And more

Sugar and

Cream than

Coffee for

You and

We will

Plan the

Rest of

Our lives

Skyward

And sometimes

We meet

Somebody’s any

Body’s and

Then we

Meet the

Only one’s

And if

We’re really

Lucky the

One but

Sometimes the

Only one’s

And the

One take

Flight on

Their own

Paths and

Upon looking

Skyward we

See them

Pass thinking

I’ve only

Ever wanted

You to

Be happy

MapleTree (to Bean)

And there

I stand

In the

Wood broad

And leafy

And every

Day you

Come and

Tap my

Trunk pulling

Essence from

Me one

Day I

Looked down

And asked

Why do

You take

From me

Looking up

Shading your

Eyes You

Replied because

You have

So much

To give

Family (to Bean)

Away from

Me you

Are with

Those that

Knew you

Before thank

Them for

Me with

This for

It’s through

Your love

For me

I know

Their love

For you
