REQUESTED (Izzy’s Sonnet)
by Marie Elena

God graciously gives gifts that prove His love,
And this time used a cherished little one
Whose precious face is reminiscent of
The one who caused my heart to come undone.
Another set of prints upon my soul
Has made her presence known, and it’s sublime –
Just like a piece that makes a puzzle whole,
Or syllable that finishes a rhyme.
Upon three years of practice on my part,
You’d think by now it might have gotten old.
But every day brings wonder to my heart,
And now my joy has multiplied twofold.
Delivered straight to us through Heaven’s door –
The one her sister earnestly asked for.
So beautifully written and so reflective of the special grandmother Izzy is privileged to have.
You are so sweet. Thank you, Nurit. Happy Mother’s Day to you! ❤
SO love this, Marie! Pure love so perfectly captured. Beautiful! ❤
Thank you, PSC!
