Maudlin and melancholy draped mother’s form. Anxiety a constant companion, two girls she bore. Xylem, the would-he part, came last, more pain In birthing her only son; she fulfilled her part. None could say she wasn’t a good wife for the wanderer. Eternity holds her now, she’s gone, my mother dear.
