Laura Leiser Poet Rhyme

Momma Took Flight

Momma flew to Jesus
is now cradled in His arms
and though I do believe it 
I’m sad but not alarmed. 

Although momma is not with us
though my tears flow freely down
knowing momma is with Jesus 
brings me joy and not a frown.

Barthwell Farmer January 3, 2026 at 6:44 AM "gives me hope and not a frown" - powerfully said. I see the whole poem reflective of sadness, vividly articulated, I can still feel a sense of hopeful relief bundled up in faith through the imagery and moving words.
