My mother Jacqueline.

_____________________________________

I gaze at your photo mother, your leaving is like no other. The day you died I was shattered, and my heart is broken and tattered. Not a day- I do not think of you, you come when skies are gray or blue. When I lost you- I lost my grip, my anchor and my true north ship. Now, I am a balloon in the breeze, and with no compass I crash into trees. Sometimes, I feel you are very near, and your sweet voice I almost hear. We both adore and love horses, a fact- our sameness endorses. I have come with roses this Fall day, to lay upon your cold stone of gray. And my tears fall like falling leaves, oh mother, forever our love weaves. _________________________ October 21, 2020 Poetry/Couplet/Forever Our Love Weaves Copyright Protected, ID 10-1296-843-21 All Rights Reserved, 2020, Constance La France Written for the Premier contest, From the Heart sponsor, Regina McIntosh Fourth Place
