Craftspeople, Creativity, Family - Happy Bday Mom
I
You have a vivid mind, heart, vocabulary
A lover of God, I make excuses (true, right)
Yes, South Africa fails us in electricity
Still, Shakespeare worked by candlelight
II
I admire my sisters who do romance
Sometimes sultry, often beauty in loyalty
You mix French idioms, native Americanism
I am awed, humbled, in the land of Steinbeck, Poe, Emily Dickinson
Note:
1. Dear PS writers and visitors, keep working on your craft. The Earth needs it.
2. RiP Mom, passed in 2005, aged 64, but today is my unschooled mom's birthday. I respect all women, my wife, daughters ... Because of my mom's unschooled wisdom, love for family, & creativity
