"Our wonderful family is like a candle that reflects its joy within our hearts. And it's like a fire that keeps us close and warm no matter how long we're apart." - Marin McKay

For every parent who has wished for the words to express how much they care about a child who's living away from home; for every child (no matter how young or old) who needs a reminder from time to time that they are loved, believed in, and supported no matter what they do or how far away from home they are... comes this collection of contemporary poetry that will bring the hearts of parents and children everywhere closer together and unite them in a bond of sharing and love.

This special collection is a gift that every parent can give with the knowledge that their deepest feelings and wishes have been conveyed in an unforgettable way. And it's one every son or daughter will receive with joy and cherish for a lifetime -- knowing that they're held with love in the thoughts and in the heart of a parent who loves them more than anything else on earth.

"I love you, and like all parents who are away from their children, I miss you and think of you often. Be safe, continue to do your best, and remember how much you are loved." - Ken Musgrove
