I turned 29 today March 1st....


Poem Artwork

... but on this day I remember you mama
"I didn't cry you know, I just pushed"
That's what you told me
You were only twenty years old
A young girl pushed into marriage at a very ripe age
"You'll learn how to love him." you were told

When every thing around you screamed No!,
The survivor in you chose to keep me
chose to love me even when there was no more love left to give
Because of you, there is a special day marked for me on a calender to celebrate

So, I just want to take the time to tell you on this day

Happy Birth Day Mama

It is not my day,
This day belongs to you mom
...to celebrate your bravery
...to announce your destiny
...to acknowledge your legacy
...to proclaim your majesty
...to be humbled by your love

Thank you mama
for those favored by God have eternal life
So if my birth is yours as well
I've been given a gift more precious than any other
Thank you mom
For making me forever young.

(Dedicated to my mother, How I long to see your face again, I miss you and I can't wait to rest in your embrace)

Awww, my puppy, a babe of just 29.
This has me tearful, as I relate with my lad.
But at least everyday when you look in the mirror, you can look with pride at such beauty and say, Thanks mum...

Till then, here's a mega embrace... xoxoxoooooo

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
