    The martyrdom of Sainthood is so well depicted here. Mother, madre, madonna. These all fit her to perfection. Obviously giving of herself without restraint, asking for nothing in return. Worked herself to her sickbed & still she shines with indomitable spirit - only her son or husband would know the depths of her self-doubts and torment.

    Naomi,

    I actually did read this a week ago or so and meant to come back and comment, so for that, forgive me!

    As to the content (which is thoroughly well rhymed, by the way), how many of us walk around with a smile on our face, hiding such darkness within? A sobering thought...

    All the best as ever,

    Ben

    Awesomeness. This is such a strong write N your structure and rhyming are spot on and this reads aloud so good, great word choice and I really like the intermittent lines between stanzas' it gives the reader a moment to pause ever so slightly for a brief reflection which, on a subject like this is always good.

    Great write!
