Mother, Hug Me


I was waking up,
as she was rushing
toward me.

moments aged her
as she dashed

first in short,
dropped yoke
gingham dresses

then in silver
flapper frocks,

and on to aprons
over bright capris

she hugged me
wearing jeans,
then disappeared

in a pastel, printed
cotton gown.... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (toniclark) http://thewaters35527.yuku.com/topic/2925 Tue, 13 Oct 2009 12:47:36 GMT <![CDATA[ Congratulations Judy Swann! ]]> http://thewaters35527.yuku.com/topic/2872/t/Congratulations-Judy-Swann-.html

I especially love the imagery in this piece. My mind attempts to picture the visage of this man but his face keeps changing and I am unable to capture his true face. The memory of the mother also plays into this piece and I am left wondering just what is the author really cooking.
