*for my Mother on her birthday*
Life flickers
a flame
I can’t hold in my palm
A butterfly hovering
Just out of reach
And this hummingbird
So delicate
Breathing its last
On our door mat
Reminding us

Joan,
Beautiful and touching. We only have one Mom and when they go, part of our hearts goes with them.
Hugs,
