The love of mother and son is forever special. Always, their first love...enduring and precious. Smiled that he sang to you...I have had that pleasure also in my life |

"fingers filled with childhood voice of stone love across the country" Ahhhhhhhhh ... how dear! Your son called and sang to you. I love knowing this fact! My three sons do not sing to me. One calls to assure me that he is safe, he is in the Marines and he knows I fret over him always. Another calls to fill me with delight over new adventures my two granddaughters are exploring. And the youngest calls usually to either ask for an edit to a college paper or for ... money. *wink wink* But a call is a call ... communication is the BEST from those you love! I adored this "voice of stone love" always seeking joy, adventure and romance and wishing you find the same |

Dear Kate "Christopher Robin is saying his prayers"...one of the first things I memorized when I was a girl. I have two sons and a phone that doesn't ring often enough. Loved this poem!! |

OhSweetLadyKate~ I adore the ALL of this~ I've a daughter and three sons ... all musical ... each with their own songs for mom~ The singing is a blessing dear mother of Christopher Robin~ What a wonderfully nostalgic piece this is~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |
