A December Memento

An album filled with photographs of Christmas Day five years ago. I still see smiles and hear the laughs when my mom's face was all aglow, now interred beneath winter's snow. December 13, 2022 A December Memento Contest Sponsored by Andrea Dietrich

My mother has been gone two years, ten months and two weeks; it does not seem possible, but I certainly related to this one!

A very touching verse Jenna, Christmas is an emotional time and you always remember Christmas's you spent with loved ones no longer here. Tom
