Your poem about your late mother was incredibly sweet and beautiful. I am sorry for your loss, though I know it has been a long time. Grief knows no time limit. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

Thanks, Pam for this nice review:)
She used to write poetry, but I never knew til after she died. I feel like a part of her is in me:)
Thanks again, sweet friend!
-
You are very welcome, Tina. I lost my mother quite a while ago, and I found out more about her after she passed away that she had never mentioned.
-
Oh, that happened to you, too? How interesting! I was young so I did not appreciate her then as much as I have over the years using what she poured into me.
Blessings my friend.
-
Yes, it did. I think when we are young, we look at our parents as old and out of touch. But it depends on when you grow up, too. Parents seemed older back in the day:)
-
Yeah, funny how age and time change perspective.
I don't feel as old as I thought my mom was,lol!
-
That is true, and you know what they say, 50 today is the new 40, and so on!!!!!
-
Yuppp!!

Oh, I'm sorry that your mom went to Heaven so young! She was only 45! I love that you remember her birthday each year and celebrate her as you did with this poem! Best wishes in the contest!

What a fantastic artwork you chose for your tribute to your mother. That is a wonderful way of pacing your mom in another time and space. I really loved the words. Great job!

That's a long time to be without your Mama, but you obviously remember her well, 45 is a terribly young person to die, I was learning to play guitar at that age. Beautifully written one liner Tina, good luck, blessings Roy

Thank you, Roy. God carried us all through that time and we realized how much she had taught us in a short time and we thank God for her. Someday I will write about all the deaths in my family and how it shaped me for the better. At least I think it did, haha. God's so good!
I appreciate you:)

Thanks Roy. My heart feels full just thinking about how much He loves us. I am ready for another of your poems, so I will read you later, I am sure.

Bless you Tina, you are kind to me,

You make it easy. Some people do that:)

Thank you dear girl,

Welcome, brother Roy:)
Comment from Theodore McDowell
Great poem for the contest. Her final breath gently sailed her home--very poetic. I remember my mother turning toward a window and sighing her last breath. A breeze blew the trees outside at the same time. This poem resonates with my Mom's last breath. Thanks for sharig.
