Mom (poem) by A PAX on AuthorsDen

Reviewed on September 25, 2010

This is awesome, Anita, and conveys so much emotion and personhood in such tight form and concise lines. Your final stanza says it all. We run the whole circle of life and philosophy with you and feel with you both your joy and your pain. Hold fast to the dear people that you are, endorsing all that you have been and are to each other every single day. These can be trying times but are also oh so precious. Beautifully rendered. Bless you both. xx

So true, my Mom has been dealing with sugar and salt for over 30 years. All that good food I left at 18 has taken its toll.

Thanks for sharing.

I salute your heart, A PAX! I believe the Maker molds time too, and most of us learn just a tad bit too late! ...it's the ones who acknowledge as such, are the ones who shall tend His flocks!
Love and Peace~

A PAX,

This is a very touching poem that I'm sure many of can relate to. When I think of my mother as a young woman and the long sickness preceding her death, well, words don't do any feelings justice. Take care.
