MALAYA.

(Dear MALAYA - this was the comment your mom posted when I published the poem EYES OPEN WIDE which you gave me in February 2006. For what it’s worth, i told you I am compelled to publish it for its power and beauty to guide you wherever that wind had taken you.
Keep on flying through your art, poetry and music. )

Dear Charisse,

I, too, love Ronald. Very much! I think no one, except the Lord, can love him more than I do. No matter what, I will always be there for him - bearing his burden with him, sharing his pain, rejoicing in his victories, sorrowing in his failures, praying for his success and well-being, loving him until the very last breath of my soul!

All the world may walk out on him, but I will always be here for him. He will never be a throw-away for me. Instead, next to my salvation, Ron will always be God’s greatest gift to me.

Thank you for believing in him, for your gracious words of encouragement and appreciation. Ronald must be thinking highly of you.Yes, Ron is a great friend. But you know what? He is even greater as a son. I know. I am his mom.
