[hometext] => My son recently passed a very important test, he had studied very hard, and I was so proud of him, I wanted him to know.....
[bodytext] =>  YOU ARE A GOOD MAN, MY SON When you were young, I gave you my right hand...... Now that I'm old, you give me yours, that I might stand..... You are a Good man, my son! When we found ourselves homeless, Not one complaint, you were dauntless. One whole year you sat up to sleep..... So I could lie down- not an easy feat. You're a man of Character, my son! Our food supply exhausted.... Not a crumb for two weeks, frosted. You shoveled snow with gloved hand... Weak, I could barely stand. You are a very Kind man, my son! Judge commands:" You will visit your father!" Threat of jail, in open court, "Never!" "He is a very bad man, I take my stand!" From that day 'til now, he is banned" You are a very Courageous man, my son! Your heart so deep, lovingly empathetic, Stray friends, stray dogs, heartsick. Loan them money, bring them home. Out of the cold, they no longer roam. You are a Generous man, my son! Not religious per se, but qualities fine You have scruples, principles, n'er decline. You worship your God unpretentiously. Not budging when others disagree fiercely You are a Faithful man, my son! They were your choices, freewill You chose to love good, to walk uphill You've made a Mother's heart so glad Because you chose, to hate the bad! You have Integrity, my son! For you everyday I tell you of my love.... A sincere, meaningful love from above. Have I also told you I'm so proud..... Do you mind if I shout it, out loud? What a mature man you've become, my Wonderful son!  Written especially for you Lovingly, Your Mom April 29, 2005 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Listen to your father who caused your birth, and do not despise your mother just because she has grown old." "Your father and mother will rejoice, and she that gave birth to you will be joyful." The Bible- Proverbs 23:22-25.  My son, Montie, today "Grateful Mother Smiles" [comments] => 6 [counter] => 177 [topic] => 23 [informant] => lovingcritters [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 25 [ratings] => 5 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => FamilyPoems )

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. ©
