Welcome May

May your days be filled with happiness, joy and laughter, you deserve more
Always know that I love you, a poem is what I’ll gift you mother
You’re  in my heart and soul, as a child and as I mature then grow old
   I cherish our memories and your motherly love from sunrise to sunset

My mother’s eyes of ebony, sparkling stars
Carefully, she tints her lips gypsy red
A cascade of flowing ringlets, her hair shines from afar
Muscatels quaint yellow ribbons a lovely corona spread                   
Slipping on an elaborate Norteño style flared dress
Exquisite ruffles swirl and billow before her rapt audience
Instructor of folkloric dance, a god given talent unique no less                                                                                   
Her blithe unbounded spirit, free as a mariposa
Images of her forever I keep, radiant and hermosa

I love how you have captured her beauty not just as a mother but as an exquisite dancer too. You must have had a great childhood. Wonderful memories to cherish. I love the last line especially. So touching. Thank you for sharing. Puts a big smile on your face and warmth in the heart. Hugs and blessings to you both xx

Sotto Poet Date: 5/6/2024 12:35:00 PM Dear Anaya, This is a very touching memorial to your mother. The art of dance instruction is very remarkable. Those with such skill sets have the unique opportunity to assist others in making sense of their immediate vicinity.

Duke Beaufort Date: 5/6/2024 11:27:00 AM Anaya, A beautiful tribute to your mom. Dance instructing is a wonderful thing. People who do that get to help others understand the space around them...there are not secrets as they understand body language perfectly.
