[hometext] => This poem is about my mother and how much I appreciate her and everything she has done, even though she has passed on.
[bodytext] => You were a good mother through my childhood, but at the tender age of eleven I lost you. Why did you have to go away so soon? For awhile, I did not know what I was gonna do. All I have is memories of times good and bad, When you left, I felt it was the end of the world, I realized I no longer had a mother, and in sense, no dad. He could not take care of us because he had no job nor a place to live. Good thing Auntie took us in, or to a foster home, the both of us, you would have to give. Thank God were with a family member; I can not be grateful enough. All I can say is after you died, my life has been rough. I have moved on with my life and I am an adult now. I know I have to continue to be strong, But sometimes, I still ask how. I joined the military and I am pursuing my career. I know you are always looking down on me, But it is not the same feeling because I need you here. I have taken care of my little brother and we have grown close over the years. I guess he is beginning to understand a lot more now, Because there has been times that I saw him shed tears. I did not get pregnant, nor did I become a fool. I have never been caught up in any chaos, And I successfully graduated from high school. Even though, Auntie took us in, it felt like a game. You two have rules so different, Because I had to start over and knew things were not going to be the same. We have been raised very well and not exposed to any drama. I miss how you always made things right. You are always in my heart and I love you, mama.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
