This is a great three lined tribute poem to your mom. The text is an okay size but could be a bit larger. If it were centered, it would be more prominent. However, the poem's spacing in the poem box needs to be adjusted a bit. Drop the first line down one or two spaces. There is a lot more space at the end of the poem. Then it will be better balanced in the poem box. The message is brief but clearly stated. The visual fits well. Good luck in the contest.

I'm sure your mom appreciates this as she looks down at you.
Of course you don't stop loving a parent after death; in fact, I don't know about you, but I talk to my Mother and my Dad, remembering certain things, telling them maybe something funny that happened to me, and sometimes a sad thing, and hope they're happy up there.
How nice that you got All Time Best. congratulations.

Thank you for reading and reviewing. I appreciate it and your feedback. Before moving states, I often visited Mom in her new marble home. I talk to my Dad over the phone, but he'll probably be joining Mom within the next 1-2 years. I'm grateful for the years I got with them, but as always, I wish I had an eternity. I'm sure your parents love hearing you talk to them. Thank you for reading again. Take care. :D :D

A nice tribute to a loving mother. And the picture of a mom and daughter fits right in. Very nice. My wife read constantly to our three daughters and it was beautiful to watch (I specialized in the outdoor activities and vacation arrangements).

Thank you so much for reading and reviewing. I appreciate it and your feedback. Mom used to read to my brother and me, too. Sometimes all four of us sat in the living room. I miss those days of my childhood. I loved listening to those stories. Thank you again. Take care. :D :D

I have run out of sixes again, so I will send you a virtual six. Like your poem. I know the feeling about losing a mom. My mom passed at the age of 65. Was your mom young? Cancer is certainly a dreadful disease.

That is a very sweet poem and deserves all the recognition it has gotten. I am still amazed at the people that can express a complete thought in just 3 lines. Your pic also fits in very well.

I'm sorry for your loss. My mom died in 2001, but I will never stop missing her. It gets easier over time, but the love never stops for a moment. This is a lovely tribute to your mom, best of luck in the contest.

I am so sorry for your loss -- our mothers are forever missed and forever loved, as your lovely poem says.
I lost my Mom fifty years ago, and yet I can still feel her influence.
Thank you for sharing. Good luck in the contest.

Thank you for reading and reviewing. I appreciate it and your feedback. I'm so sorry about your loss; even fifty years ago, it still leaves a mark. I'm glad you can still feel her influence. I'm the same way. I'll be doing something and then suddenly I become my mother. It's both a good and disconcerting feeling. Take care. :D :D

This is a wonderful tribute to your mother, A. Meyers. We never forget loving the memory of a parent. We may be what we are but love for our parents is always there. This is a good entry for the 3 Line Poetry Contest. Thank you for sharing.
P.S. Don't grade me. :)
