Summer Souvenir

Nice memory!

Lovely, Mom's hands are a great source of inspiration for many poetry forms. I need to remember that. I did do a Mom haiku but it wasn't focused on hands. Love this & I love the encouragement & kindness you offered me via Andrea's blog on my hand. T/U for reading my Raja poem & sharing that you, too, are a feline lover. For a few days I was leery of my love who stood outside my bedroom door meowing, "heloooo" repeatedly to be let in. I can now place fingers on keys & type for wee bit w/o pain.

What a wonderful memory ~ says lots about your mom and your relationship

Dear Mark, I adore your tender, nostalgic poem. I have similar "summer souvenir" memories as well. Your precious monoku brings me back to those beautiful, loving, learning times. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

So sweet and nostalgic. I hope this one places.

Sweet moments and memories. Those were the days, indeed. Life was simple then. To a degree, of course. : ) My best to you, Mark. : ) Hugs, Brandy

What a fun write you have here. One summer I did one with a friend. It was very hot out but fun. Great memories are the best kind. "Good Luck" if for a contest. Have a fun day writing away...........
