I See Her |

I See Her I see her through a veil of years A mist, a cloud, a bail of tears I see her in a childish trance And often with a sparrows glance Some times a trivial in pass Sometimes within the looking glass Sometimes the warmth of odors smell She lives with me in every dwell. She haunts the breeze that cools my face She lives in every living grace. Holds my hand when I am ill And tenders me till I am still. Hovers o’er my space of live Giving all that she can give. In touching hints that fill my day Long gone, but in my mind she stay. She was my first love, non other Than my loving saintly mother |

I know she loved you very much, for she left you with that special touch the one that tenders us so fair with a poet's love, so rare... |

Thank You SY....it is certainly hard to beat the love of a mother....Many a wife has competed for that position for eons.. Both hold special places in a man's heart. |

Excellent write sir. A wonderful tribute to that ones that indeed hold our first love. Your cadence is always superb and masterful in everyway. I do not believe I have ever read one of yours that misses a beat and that sir is a talent that many of us strive for. I applaud you. |

Seymour - how lovely this is. I miss my Mom to-day, but sense her in the breeze - thankyou for this. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

Chris, We miss them when they are here and miss them when they are gone. That should tell you something. |
