Then He Cried Comments

Rating: 5.0

Dear Randy, though years have passed, but the great sadness about your mother's death will stay, mine is like your dear Mother, we will never forget, though she is dead. Thank you so much for this lovely poem, I become sad too, since my mother was like yours.

You sketch a close bond between mother and son: the mother could well be a single parent, as the father looks to be absent. It is a very good motive to bring honour and pride to your mother-and your father too, if he is there. A top-notch poem in crafted quatrains.
