That is a beautiful poem! I think we are made from the same mold because I've been writing all my life too. I prefer rhythm and rhyme also. My writing comes from my heart and my moods too. Great job@@

    Hi Patty Thank you for your review and yes rhyme and metered poems are my favourites also although have had a go at free verse at times to challenge myself Cheers Christine

This is so sweet! There was a time when parents had favorites and even let their kids know which was which. It certainly led to a lot of strife with siblings. Your children are lucky to have you - your poem reflects how much you love them. Hugs, Lou

How sweet this is, Christine. I have three sons and know just how special that bond is. I love being a mother and grandmother. It is truly in my genes.
Sending you my best today as always,
Sally :+)

Hi Christine!

Nice loving tribute to the poet Mum's three parts of her life (-:

I too like to use FanArt and I know some of my posts have been graced by GaliaG's illustrations. Good choice for your contest entry.

It's amazing how a mother's heart can enlarge itself to provide equal love to all her children no matter how many there are. I particularly like the ending because we all wish the memories held of us will be wonderful ones.

Hi Chrissie,
I totally relate to your poem. I have three children too and my love for them is equal and all encompassing. They are all so different but all so mine!
Beautifully rhymed and metered, I wish you all the best in the contest.
Kind regards, Debra :)

Hello Chrissy, what a moving poem. You make it clear, not just in this poem but in other work you post, just how important your family are to you. Like you I have 3 children, Catherine, Martin and Bill (and 7 grandchildren). Like you I love them all. A good poem and I wish you well in the contest. Warm regards Dorothy x

Good luck in the contest Christine. This was very well done and also a great tribute to mothers everywhere. We do tend to give out a piece of our heart and even our soul every time we give birth. It is nice to know that there is that forever link. Very enjoyable.

A very well-written heartfelt rhyming poem to let your children know you are still loving them although they are not under your care anymore, your legacy will carry on in their children.

This was one of those moments that I felt virtually connected to your poem as a mother. As we age we have to think about the inevitable (No, not more time to
Sun bake!,,,,,,,) i liked your poem a lot, because it shows your love for all three grown up children. I hear of families where one child is left out, even from the will.
Thanks for sharing ,and good luck in the contest.
Hugs, Trisha
