J. S. Bach - Partita in C moll BWV 997 - Evangelina Mascardi, Liuto bar...

Ma Mere

 

As I sit here reading a book

i  am suddenly reminded of my mother

she sits at the kitchen table reading

wearing thick framed glasses

the sight as a child filled with me sadness

what were those books ?

romantic novels probably

the unhappiness and loneliness of my mother

surrounded her like a soft grey light

i felt i was somehow responsible for her plight

even though nothing was ever said

my father had caused this pain and

his name was never mentioned

i was like a piece of blotting paper

my heart absorbing the pain of her sadness

a trait i have carried  all of my life

if i open my heart to someone

i feel their pain sometimes more intensely

than they do themselves

innocent and beautiful

precious and treasured

one of the lucky ones

not trafficked as sex slaves

favour bleak and foreboding

where have all the flowers gone?

 In Honour Of A 40 Year Friendship


 he sent me a pic

 of his  little garden

tended to with love

his sweet old cat suns herself

on a spring afternoon 

this kind soul

shines his wamth and compassion

on all those lucky enough

to know him or 

to have been placed in his care
