Always her Billy

by Maple Tree   Mar 30, 2016


He will always be her Billy-

With her eyes
he whispers comfort
into ears that have grown
older, but a spirit of strength
that rises above the tallest of trees.

He comforts his mother
because she has comforted
him for 72 years....

    Andrea, again beautiful! Nothing like a mothers love, I still call my kids by their pet names.

    My heart melts with this! What a love, what a spirit.

    Oh and P.S. "whisper's" should have no apostrophe :)

      Thank you MaryAnne-

      I'm so embarrassed because the picture poem I did for this has the apostrophe :-(
