The Mother
Sad hands
soft sighs
Felt a loss
Her son away now flies
Alone and feeble
A scrapbook on her lap
Reminiscing
Because she can't get it back
Elementary Photographs
2nd grade
Proud of the Boy
And the progress that he made
High school Basketball
6ft 7inches tall
Mom took a picture
Forever displayed on Bedroom Wall
Son moves away
Just got married the other day
The mother called
Two voices had a lot to say
Missing Boy
Now D.A.
Time is gone
Then is Yesterday
