For Karla's Challenge: immutable: not capable of or susceptible to change;unchanging

*Missing Mom* Memories, warm and rich, enfold me Imitating Mother’s arms Silencing my fears and worries-- Softly guarding me from harm. Immutable, your love remains Near my heart to dull the pain-- Gently soothing with its charms… Moments play upon my mind, Mom; Ointment to my lonely heart-- Mom's memories bring a healing balm.

Dear Cryssa, It is a great poem! Nothing can replace the love of a mother. No one can erase her memory and her love. The power of her care is unique and irreplaceable. God bless all the moms and their children. Love Emile
