On the Other Side of Here Premiere Contest Winner

She went to join the angels on the other side of here. The days have suddenly grown longer then the elongated nights of Autumn's eve oh how I wish that I could laugh with her. She was always there for us ushering us forth in life. Through thick and thin she mothered her children and taught them how to be faithful and strong in the face of day to day adversity. I long for the laughter lines on her beautiful sweet face. The recollection of her love still lingers much longer then the search of what once was forever in my soul she will reside . With Holidays approaching I do miss her all the more . There was always a birthday cake for her for she was born at midnight Christmas Eve and the biggest gift of all was her smile. She went and join the angels on the other side of here. October 8, 2018

Oh, Pixie, I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved Mom. I'm familiar with the feeling you express of missing your Mom. I still miss my Mom, at times intensely still, and it's been 15 years.. I can hardly believe it's been that long.. your feelings, your love and longing for her will express itself in your poetry and through your beautiful verses she will shine..
