Another poem: an ode to mom

It is not that I am in a sad mood, but just wanted to share one of the odes I wrote for my mom.
___A LAST GLIMPSEThat last time I saw youYou didn’t seem much olderBut for the grey of death
You didn’t hear us enterAs if you were expecting usYour smile never so young
And the few lines in your faceBearing happiness and painSo weary, yet this moment so alive
And your soft spoken wordsWhose echoes I still carry within meAs I do your endless love___
Hope you enjoyed it.
Thank you so much for your time and for your attention. Be safe and much love.
