. ![]() . Babies are prayers. Mothering is prayer. Each tasting kiss, each chattering diaper change..each worn red sandal putting on pulling off each rambling invented story, each whispered convincing promise. The cradles we make of our voices ~ rocking ~ rocking may this remain just so may we all be here may we do this again and again and again tomorrow and forever. . |

oh, you brought on Alice in Wonderland... I can't blink fast enough to stop the tears. Mothers and childen, that place where love is, where love grows, where love develops wings... I am a mother, a grandmother--but you know, I am missing my moms. LOL I had a few...lucky me! Happy Mother's day to you, my enchanted friend! ~ ~ Klassy |

tomorrow and forever. My first Mother's Day without a living mother, because my own mother died in early March 2006. She would have been 80 years old on May 20, 2006 yet "Tomorrow and Forever" are truly my mother all the way to eternity. a poet who cares |

Such a lovely write, Nancy, to bring on a mother's tears. Being a mother is great privilege - I sometimes wonder what I did to deserve the blessing of three fine sons. May every day be a happy mother's day for you. |
