[hometext] => I have been writing poetry since I graduated
from high school in 1975. This particular poem was written in the hospital waiting room while my mother was having surgery for cancer. [bodytext] => Her face is no longer smooth, it is lined by time. Although she doesn't look the same, she is still that dear mother of mine. She has always given of herself to me, nothing was I ever denied. She laughed when I laughed, she comforted me when I cried. There is no one like her, I don't think there ever will be. No one means as much to me, as she. To me, it doesn't matter what she looks like, I guess it is a matter of pride. For the things that make her the most beautiful, are the things she has inside.
