Dem Andenken meiner Mutter
(In remembrance of my Mother)

Picture: Ekkehard May (Germany)
He made this picture in remembrance of his recently deseased Mother)



I need a place to rest my sorrow
I'll put it down underneath this tree
When I feel lonely, I'll come to visit
We'll have a chat Mom, you and me

Titia Geertman

I met this guy Ekkehard May on a photo website. He's making the most beautiful pictures of trees and they inspired me to write little poems. With his approval I will submit them here for you to see. If you're interested to see more, look up .usefilm.com (remove the first dot) and search for our names.
