ED, so much emotion in three little lines, so true, 7, and congratulations on your placement in the contest and thanks for visiting my poem, springtime flowers, my mother always talked to her flowers so when she died I planted some of her own at her tomb, they are thriving there (actually a bit too much thriving)

Thank you, your mother was a big part of your life, Sunday is Mother's day...I hope your Sunday is filled with memories of the times you had with your mother leaving you with a smile. ~ Peace
