| Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 06/28/09 at 09:06 PM Wonderful stuff Wendy. Excellent combination of verbal and visual. For example: dressed like a damsel with high heels and frilly bordered knit gloves. Kudos Kudos Kudos...great to see you post again here! :o) |
| Posted by Glenn Currier on 06/29/09 at 04:36 PM The words flow gently, lovingly, and longingly. What a cool connection between what and who your mother was, what and who you are, and your dreams. Your poem is as delicate and lovely as that necklace on your mother's silken throat. Delightful, Wendy. |
| Posted by Tony Whitaker on 06/30/09 at 03:33 AM Yes, thank you Quentin. I love how the words roll on the tongue and how strong my emotions were pulled. It makes me think of my own mother now that I live 4,000 miles from her. Brillaint Wendy. |
