So beautifully crafted and well expressed poem. Very heartfelt. To my favorites.
I always idolize people who can share their pains and sufferings. People who are in their shoes could in one way or another derive their strength to hurdle their difficulties in life.
This beautiful poem is like a novel crafted in just few paragraphs. A story of the agony of a loving mother and her beloved daughter, how they go through the difficulties of life. This is how great poetry works where you could deliver to a reader a great story in just a very short time.
Wow! Thank you Rose Marie, your reference to this being like a novel touched my heart. I am writing a series of novels.
This comment was very meaningful and encouraging to me, Rose Marie. You give me hope for success in the writing of novels!
A deeply poignant and touching but so beautiful poem that reaches the deepest part of heart and very soul. A reader's emotions could easily swayed by the flow of words that were coined so heartily and honestly.
Cont.3..The words of my late grandmother were like in a tape recorder played twice a day and I know that sleep avoided her because she was always reading her bible and keeping herself busy
When my uncle had this terminal illness, my late grandmother always talked to God at 6am and at 6pm, kneeling and praying to God to take all the pains and sickness of my late uncle and pass them all to her because is a lot older and she can't live without him.
My dear, Susan, every line of this very touching and deeply poignant poem resonates with me. And as I read every word, the words of my late grandmother reverberate in my mind and tears clouded my eyes, the same way when when I wrote my poem, the Agony of a Mother and the Love Of My Mother
