Sharing a poem I wrote as I sat by my Indiana today… the love of my life….
As I sit by your side
As I sit by your side, day after day
Embracing your love, and hoping you’ll stay…
I think of your life and how blessed we are
You are so amazing, our shining star…
I see you getting tired, I miss when we play
But all I wish, is to have one more day…
One more day of Indy kisses, and happy songs that you sing
One more day of your love, and such joy that you bring…
I hold on so tight, with tears in my eyes
I am not ready, to say our final goodbyes…
As I sit by your side, I pray and pray
For you to feel good, and to stay another day…
~written with love for Indiana by Carol Roberts (Copyright May 2011)

Indiana is a big fuzzy teddy bear ~ I love to hug & kiss him all day long! He has “had one more day” and I am so thankful! I love to write poetry and felt that it was time to start writing about my boy! Big hugs to all of you! xoxo
Sorry I changed the gender of Indiana on you… I meant to call him a big fuzzy boy!!! Not good to do multiple things at once… my apologies! Too bad we can’t edit our own posts…
