Today is another fine Spring day, a day that Rosie would have loved and sighed contentedly, smiling with that bright light shining in her eyes as she lays on the porch and grins at me. oh Rosie. I miss you.

I am listening to My Antonia with Emmylou Harris and Dave Matthews and it always makes me think of you. I always think that song is about you and it makes me happy and want to cry too. What a lovely beauty you were every minute!

The funny thing is you always liked my voice, you always liked me to sing to you. You always looked like it was the most amazing thing in the world. I loved talking to you. Where is my baby girl? Where are you now?

A golden light in the sky.

My heart is split open, laid vulnerable, surrendered, and because of you I know what Love is.

oh Rosie, baby Rose.
