Memories of Mother:

shhhhh.

The forget-me-nots are crying

whispering hiccups

each droplet trickling

screams

REMEMBER…..REMEMBER….Remember

The bleeding hearts are feeding

on worm tenderized guilt

peeling themselves open just to feel

so red

wounded

beautiful

The carnations are defying

the march of time

defiled from their roots

lying bravely on the grave

listening

to the forget-me-nots crying

Remember.
It is late on Mother's Day. This is for my mother whom shall never see it.

Yes I know the carnations don't have the symbology or visual effect of the other flowers...but they were her favorite.

Here is for you mom.
