this is a wonderful tribute to your dearly loved mother as well as to your amazing childhood and life with her. She does sound like a wonderful mom and woman.

Thanks for the review. My mom just loved this one. She really was the best mom I could ever hope for.
In Canada back in the 1950's, the gov't wanted women to take a pill for morning sickness and my mom refused. Many babies were born with tiny arms because of that medicine. Thalimide, something like that. My mom researches everything and is 93 years old, no pains, full hair, teeth, always happy and curious, sews like an expert (wedding dress and costumes for me) walks freely every day. She really takes care of herself with good food and her top secret? ....
bone broth.

It's wonderful that you still have her...Both of my parents passed on years ago...I miss them dearly. See her as much as you can. That would be my advice to you.
The poem ran well and was enjoyable to read
Good luck in the contest.
Blessed be

Thanks for the thoughtful review. Believe me as soon as this pandemic is gone, I am going to visit her in Montreal, she misses me. Cheers, j
Comment from LisaMay
I loved reading about your Mom and your wonderful childhood. She sounds a really special character, and you've captured how you honour her through your words, especially in the final stanza:
I am my Mother's daughter,
in my eyes right to my core.
She made my life so wonderful,
I could not love her more.

This is a well-written, vividly descriptive, moving, delightful poem--paying a sweet tribute to that unique individual called MOTHER. You have made excellent use of specific details.

Thanks for sharing.
