Tonight's blog is brought to you by the letter Z...which is what I need to do, so I am sharing something I wrote eighteen years ago.This is from a writing assignment where I had to emulate someone else's style...Mom felt it was quite different from what I usually wrote--from her reaction I assumed she liked my own style better, but appreciated the sentiment with which this was written.
MOTHER
God gave so much
When He blessed me with a Mother
Whose ever open arms welcome...release
Warm soft cheek, salt and pepper hair
Gentle smile...loving heart
Breath and breast
Rising, rhythmic, reassuring
Ever maternal
Weary with satisfaction, her household clothed
She is contentment, ever changing
Her heart to mine
Sharing and caring
Our relationship bearing
Dreams and disappointments
I write this with much love
And eternal thanks
For my Mother, My friend
