Mothering Memories ~*Marge Tindal*~  Bride of child ... soon 'with child' Oh, how your beauty has shown Barely fifteen years of life yet new lives soon would be born~  And in the growing you found the time to present us each with new life Five of us in the making each a special undertaking~  Beautiful Mother ... sweet grace of face how you wrapped me in your poetic lace You held my thoughts in tender spill gave my ink the etch of quill~ ~*~ o ~*~ To me ... you gave the poetry from your soul Forever I am in your debt for all the verses I have written and the ones I've not written yet~ ~*~ o ~*~ I gather thoughts from the family tree gracing them with branching poetry Always I am mindful of the colors gifted in your inkwell of love~ ~*~ o ~*~ Thanking my Mother ... for all I am poetically~ Tenderly from my heart~ I'll always wish she was still here to read them~ Beverly W. Drury Cowart January 22, 2002 ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Then she must have been blessed with a poetrygift herself, if she taught you to write. Sometimes mothers are priceless, are they not? And your's is one of them. Thank you so much for sharing, you were given birth by a muse. Titia A rose is a rose is a rose...I guess... |
