She tended
to their elegance
her babies
in a sense
they breathed in her tender touch
they miss her presence

Lovely, Lauren. 🙂 xo
Thanks so much, Bette! Have a wonderful Sunday! 💓
Very tender, Lauren.
Thank you, John. I miss my mom so much, and I can still vividly remember her passion for her garden.
A super memory.

Awww.. just beautiful Lauren.. ❤
Thanks, Sue! 💕
Awww
Thanks, Shian! 💓
That comes from your inner being Lauren.
Thanks so much, Ian. I’m sure there are more poems to be written about my parents, as it’s still raw that they’re both gone now.
Brings a tear, Lauren. So poignant, and your mom sounds just like mine with her flowers, her gardening. A lovely shadorma!
Aww, thanks, Betty! Not only do you and I have some things in common, but it’s nice to hear that our moms both loved their gardens, too. I appreciate your kind words. 💗
So tender and beautiful, Lauren. Hugs.
Thanks so much, Michelle! Sending Monday hugs to you. 💕
Down the generations.
Still grieving, even though time heals…
Only natural. My thoughts and wishes go with you.
Thanks, Ben. It’s all fine though. These special memories are comforting.
That’s right.
Very thoughtful.
Thanks, Binky!
Lauren, beautifully tender and loving…I sense your ache and longing.hugs xx❤️
PS. I just saw your wonderful reply on Adrienne’s blog on my Loss of a Patriarch and have replied to you. So sorry for the delay.
Thanks, Annika. I think there may be more poems about my parents to come. But, it’s the fond memories that are vivid now and keep us all going…and I did see your comment and just replied again, too. Love and hugs to you xo
So very beautiful, Lauren! I can feel your yearning and heartache with every word… Many big, warm and enveloping hugs! xxxxx💗💗💗
Thanks so much, Sarah! I don’t think the heartache will ever go away, but the memories will flood through, replacing the tears eventually. I appreciate the hugs, too-always love those hugs. 🙂 Lots of love to you, also! 💓💓
No, I can’t imagine the pain will ever go away, Lauren, but I hope its raw edges will lessen with time and like you said, the good memories will replace the tears eventually. There´s nothing as intense as the bond between mother and child – my mum just had an accident on Wednesday and broke her shoulder and arm, and I´m beside myself with worry. It´s so hard to keep calm but I know that she will need me in the next weeks or months to come and I need to mentally prepare for it. Sending you more warm hugs and love! xxx ❤
Hi Sarah, I know the raw edges will lessen over time, and I’m so sorry to hear about your mom’s accident. It’s hard not to worry. My mom was a worrier and I took after her. But I think everyone worries to some degree when our loved ones are involved. Your mom is lucky to have you. I can’t imagine the pain she’s in. But I hope her healing process is smooth, knowing she’ll be wrapped up in your love and care. Sending you more love and hugs, and I’ll keep you and your mom in prayer and positive thoughts. xoxoxo
Thank you so much for your heartfelt and warm words, dear Lauren! I sometimes wish I wouldn’t worry so much in general, but recently read that it´s something difficult to change so we will just have to cope with it 😉
Thanks so much for your prayers and positive thoughts – they are very much appreciated!! Hope all is well with you! Please take care! Much love and big hugs to you! xoxoxo ❤
It’s soft, longing, and beauty, all wrapped up in one poem! ❤
Aww, that’s lovely, Christy, thank you! Hugs!
So lovely ❤
