LOVE OF MY LIFE 

by Robin Gorley
Source:
A Lifetime of Words (2005) p. 1

Love of my life
Don't leave me alone
To be lost and afraid
Without a home. 

For home is with you
Wherever we are
You're my shoulder to lean on
My port in the storm. 

You encourage my dreams
You don't make me small
If I start to stumble
You help break my fall 

We've grown together
My soul you feed
For being there always
You are my friend indeed
The love of my life.

Robin's Background Inspiration about her poem "Love Of My Life":
This poem I wrote for my husband of 18 1/2 years. He always encourages me in anything I want to do, and he supports me when I'm feeling down.

MY LITTLE ANGEL 

by Robin Gorley
Source:
A Lifetime of Words (2005) p. 59

You are my little angel
When you're sound asleep
Dreaming of dogs and cats
And bouncing balls 

Your day was spent exploring
Learning more about your world
Finding sticks and stones
And "why does a car go?"
And how far the rock was hurled. 

Inside you look for boxes
And pots and pans to bang
Give me the keys, won't you please
Where's the doorbell I just rang? 

Now the house is quiet
My thoughts are running deep
You are my little angel
When you're sound asleep. 

------------------------------------
Robin's Background Inspiration about her poem "My Little Angel":
This poem was written about my son, my miracle child Steven. He was into everything, and very curious. And when he would sleep, he was the best angel
ever.
