Hey I really like that, it's been a while since I read a nice simple poem. Sometimes you forget about the simplicity of poetry when you're taking a demanding Poetry Class. For a minute there while I was reading it I actually believed I felt the same way about my mom, it's too bad I don't. Keep writing!
Hey thanks! I'm glad that you felt like you felt the same way as I do. Thats what me as a writer looks for, someone to get it and feel the same way you know? Thanks again for the comment
It's a shame you haven't gotten any more replies than this. I think your poem is beautiful, and I feel the same way about my own mother. She may get on my nerves sometimes, but I love her so much. Your poem is such an inspiration...the first time I read it I tried to write an insprirational poem, but it turned out to be a horror/romance...XD.
Perhaps I can get her to come back and post more poetry. *goes off to pester Rika with emails and phone calls and house visits to post more for the public*
