My Amazing Mother

My wonderful mother who I love and adore

Anil Deo April 12, 2017 at 10:01 PM I recalled I said 7. So, there your piece has been rated It earned top marks, not at all inflated! In schools, teacher grades on a curve Though some students "Fs" do deserve Not my Limerickian (to 'Wee's not related) Jan Allison April 13, 2017 at 6:16 AM I hope you will have a go and enter my limerick contest I will put it up in the next few days:-) hugs Jan xx

Anil Deo April 12, 2017 at 9:48 PM Jan, thank you. Though she is your mom, but your being her best friend now (sister keeping distance) is HOLY WORK which inside churches is called WORSHIP. You are blessed by God to do all things well ... even write excellent limericks after hating poetry (in school - I get that!). A 7.Hugs Jan Allison April 13, 2017 at 6:13 AM Thanks Anil:-) hugs jan xx

Emile Pinet April 12, 2017 at 7:00 PM You have stored all the best your mother gave to you in your heart so that you may dispense it to others and they too can be touched by the experience. Emile. Jan Allison April 12, 2017 at 7:08 PM I can thank my mother's side of the family for my poetry but it took my husband's cancer for it to be unleashed in me as I had never written a poem since my schooldays (and I haed poetry then) but now I am making up for lost time. My aunt and uncle both wrote funny poems especially limericks so it must be in my blood:-) hugs jan xx
