Once I thought
the 'Generation Gap'
was a pile of crap
Yet today
I think it's here
to stay...
I am a grown woman
Yet sometimes I don’t feel that way
At times I still feel like that little girl
Who just wants her mum here today
The kindness and reassurance I felt as your child
Compares to none
You showed pure unconditional love
How I miss that now my sweet mum
You held my hand ,stroked my face
Told me it would be ok
You made me feel completely safe and secure
My little girl fears faded away
I miss the feel of your small soft hands
Which held mine so lovingly
That little girl still needs her mum
A yearning that will always be….
I found it so difficult to write a poem
about my biological mother
I finally
wrote “Oh, Mama”.
It is a sad poem about daughter/mother
relationship, like a crumpled picture
or a torn picture separating me,
being a fragmented piece of my family.
Will I get an answer why she
treated me so differently?
No answer then.
Never will be.

She told me that I'd best obey
My daughter always has her way
When I say 'No,' she stomps and pouts
Then calls her friends to cuss me out
I don't know why she acts so mean
I fulfill her every dream
With the latest tech and clothes
She's a fashionista head to toe
She's realized all of her fantasies
Except, I guess, getting rid of me
Mum has been in a care home since dad died . I try to see her every day except when I’m unwell or on holiday. My dad gave my sister cash for 'travel' but she's never visited and for the last 2 years not sent birthday or mother’s day cards or rings her, so my visits are very precious to my mum.
When I visit my mum I take:-
One loving heart
Two arms to embrace her
Three ideas for memory games
Four funny poems to read to her
Five pounds if her wallet is getting low
Open ears ready to listen ...
Self control for when she is incorrect!
Tissues for tears of laughter not sadness
Willing hands when she needs help toileting
Patience for when she repeats herself

Everybody I raised wants to drive.
They have to be in charge.
Insisting on being in control.
In a booth, we all have to be on the outside.
Family reunions at restaurants are okay
only if there are chairs.
Not sure where this need to control originates.
Possibly their dad’s side
or it skipped a generation.
Their grandmothers are both executive producers
of their lives, always sitting in a cat bird seat.
Orchestrating things
What is that annoying noise?
He knows he does not have permission to speak.
I have not had my third cup of coffee.
Yes, it is definitely from his side of the family.
I accept no blame in their
idiosyncrasies and Type A tendencies.
i have my mother's eyes
they're on my darker side
when a lover says
you're just like your mother
i can hear them roll

Parent becomes child becomes as parent –
Apparent is elder one’s impairment.
Trying feelings and thoughts run concurrent
In this cycle of human life changes.
Emotional weight can out right drain us.
Navigating relationship strangeness,
Concentrating on being courageous,
Entails resolute faith to sustain us.
D evoted to me from the start
O utstanding in care she imparts
N oble in fulfilling my needs
N oteworthy in words and in deeds
A ffectionate mother to me...
My Donna’s as sweet as can be!!!!
Eileen Manassian Ghali
Donna isn’t old enough to be my Mama, but she has the most beautiful heart of a mother and has taken me under her wing and adopted me as her daughter. I can’t tell you what a precious gift that is, especially since I lost my Mama 14 years ago….and I’m a BIG BABY at heart and need nurture and care. Thanks, Donna….for being in my life. I love you dearly!
