: Motherless Child by adewpearl




Fifty
years of absence,
no warmth of love's embrace --
I close my eyes in sleep and see
her face.

Author Notes
May 28,2009 will be the fiftieth anniversary of the death of my mother, Sylvia Theresa Nelsen Sibel. This has been on my mind.
In the cinquain form, the title is considered a significant sixth line - in this case, it is most significant.
