It's been awhile, but I am back! Before I offer up my tribute to Nikki Giovanni, I want to acknowledge the date: August 3. On this date in 2001, my daughter Nia Janae went to be the Lord. She is my angel and I miss her. God Bless you baby girl.
This poem tonight is dedicated to my husband and my children whose love holds me through the tough times and skips with me through the happy times.
Love is
By Nikki Giovanni

Some people forget that love is
tucking you in and kissing you "Good night"
no matter how young or old you are
Some people don't remember that love is
listening and laughing and asking questions
no matter what your age
Few recognize that love is
commitment responsibility no fun at all
unless
Love is
You and me
