Beauty There is beauty in every face a twinkle a glow arch of lid breath of flower and to trace line and form is no miracle to sleight of hand but the heart light that grows and cascades from within ----- in memory of my mother Marian l904-l981 |

So softly beautiful Martie. To have been able to know a mothers smile is something so many take for granted, so I cherish the few pictures that I have and search for the lady behind the smile I see. This touched me Martie. Thank you for making a wonderful morning thought for me. |

those black and white photos always make me well up inside, especially when I think about my mom who died in 1980. Thanks for sharing Martie. |

Hello again sweet Martie. This is lovely, as all your poems are. I have missed reading them. Your words here are so very true and sweet for me as I nearly lost my mom recently, and I could have written the same-------but not nearly as well. |
