~She's Crying Today~

Feelings of sadness surround
pink tears falling to the ground
empty sighs released
attempts to mend ceased.

~She's Crying Today~

Alone by the shore
thoughts of now wanting more
hands holding head in distress
feelings of guilt for being careless

~She's Crying Today~

Other plans got in the way
but what could be more special then Mother's Day?
Cries of choices made
memories of smiles continue to fade.

~She's Crying Today~


*About my Mother and what she did this morning.

Oh how this rings loudly of sadness and disappointment, SpitFire.  So sorry to hear of the morning you have had.  I hope that the rest of the day goes much better for you.  Glad that you could write about it at least...always helps.  Nice expression.
Take care,
LW

Yes this is a very sad poem indeed. It was a great read though.

Spitfire~

I'm sorry to here about your morning.  But one thing that I know is that mothers will always love you, no matter what.  Take care.

Hugs for you and your mom.
The tears that fall from a mother's eyes
always catch us in surprise ...
just hug her !
