Visiting Mom

Contributed by deadheadpoet on Tuesday, 18th January 2005 @ 05:50:53 PM in AEST
Topic: Grief



Sometimes...
I sit and talk to her
for hours

I know she hears me

I have smoked there

I have drank there

I have slept there
all night in the cool grass

I have cried many tears

Found shelter there for years

I sit on her tombstone
and I think of all the problems solved here

I lay a rose on her grave
so she knows...

I care

This is excellent. It's so moving. It's weird how someone's presence is still so evident even though that person is no longer around physically. This is a great write.
I'm sorry for your loss.

This is a great poem. Heart felt, honest, real. I love those things. I feel like these lines I have selected really express the heart of the feeling of this piece. At least that what struck me
the most. Images, rather than rhyming structures always strike me the most.

Be True,
zenmind
