Mother At Heart - Double Kyrielle Sonnet A Mother cherishes beyond measure Each offspring's individual treasures Her love unconditionally endowed By softness of kiss on her young one's brow. She silences monsters under the bed With prayers for the frightened huddled in dread. Croons in calm tones as warm breeze swaying bough By softness of kiss on her young one's brow. A scraped knee...or two, she fixes with ease A stern nod of head when one forgets "Please?" She teaches sound manners, what she'll allow By softness of kiss on her young one's brow With fierce protection she guards, safe from harm By softness of kiss on her young one's brow With fierce protection she guards, safe from harm When one's sad she bakes cake, works like a charm Lessons in French, Oui and Italian, Ciao By softness of kiss on her young one's brow Early she wakes (might feel like wilted rose) To fill empty bellies, wipe a red nose Brightening new dawn, thankful for the now By softness of kiss on her young one's brow A Mother will hold them close to her heart Wish for each one good luck when they depart Will love them forever, this she will vow By softness of kiss on her young one's brow Nighttime aproaches, she bids them sweet dreams By softness of kiss on her young one's brow chanson~ [This message has been edited by chansondegeste (edited 08-19-2000).] |

I am also new and I totally love your peom. My mom and I are very close and I work with children. I haven't really thought of writing poetry about my mom usually about boyfriends. I will try to write one and see how I do. I love yours and don't think I could top it it has great flow and is very touching yet comical. Great Job Randi POETRY PRINCESS "Love is a serious thing, and tears is all it will bring, but how do I bring it to an end, and how do I get my heart to mend? |

ethome, I'm not a huge fan of the sonnet (I like to read them but I don't like to write them. *grin*) Thank you for the welcome! ...chanson~Randi, I've no doubt that you will write beautiful sonnets. Good luck! (though you probably don't need it) ...chanson~ |

Welcome to Passions. A mother's love is so very special and you couldn't have said it any better. My children now grown, I miss tucking them in bed, but I still kiss their brow. Nicely done!! |
