Unbroken Chain of Love

Was there ever a time she doubted my love? As a child, did I let her know how much her acts of kindness meant? No one will ever love me as she did. Decades have passed, but my heart still yearns for her touch. Ageless is the affection for the mother who lives in my heart. *Written March 15, 2015, in honor of my mother who passed far too young in 1984.

Andrea, it is a common name for people of Polish ancestry, but I don't come across many with that name. Thanks for your comments. Love, Carolyn
