Valerie Carol Holland Poems

Twin souls who can't exist apart
Two hearts must join to make them start,
To beat together for our lives.
We'll be together all our lives.

Sweet baby breath that was denied, the darkest dawn we thought you died.
safe asleep in your tiny bed, that is not safe but kills instead,
Sirens blaring through dark streets, my daughters face as our eyes meet,
and then our hands we hold on tight, to sanity then see our mite,
...

On a cold December day I fetched my baby fair,
three weeks old unseen by me she waited for me there.
Not for me the pain of birth, or the wonder of it all,
but as you lay and looked at me in an instant I did fall,
