Hello, dear blog friends,
I have another poem to share. This week, Willow hosts Tanka Tuesday, and she has asked followers to write a Nonet focused on mothers. She explained that in the UK, Mother's Day was celebrated a few days ago - on March 15th. In the USA, we will celebrate that special day on May 10th.
With all that is happening in our beautiful world, pausing to remember our mothers sounds good to me. My mom had nine babies, and many of my memories of her include her holding one of them. Later, she cherished cuddling with the grandchildren.
In the photo below, you'll find Mom in purple in the first row. BTW, this isn't all the grandchildren. Some couldn't make it to the gathering. Yep, we wear name tags when we gather to avoid mix-ups. 😊

My Nonet poem tries to capture the tenderness moms feel when holding their newborn. Ohhh, if only we had more of that peace.....
I hope you have a fantastic week. In our area, we've been issued an "Extreme Heat Warning". Whatever happened to Spring!?
