And sometimes no matter what we do we cannot protect them unfortunately :(

So true Dagmar. I would jump in front of a speeding car to protect my kids and now grandkids. It never ends.

I'm sure if it were not for mothers, the world would cease to function.
Nice write.

Lovely Miss Dagmar, I could not agree more
hugs
Michael :)

For me my mother is everything. Hugs for writing this one and connecting all of us once again to our roots.

Just brilliant Dagmar. Every word so true. Love it! :-) x

It is truly difficult to want these words to transpire with fond memories and good times of my biological mother, but reality sets in and the unsettling feeling of loneliness and hatred overcomes my whole being because I can't relate to this poem. All I can remember is her face looking down at me and how much hate can flourish like a cancer spreading throughout the years and years of abuse.

I envy you, and everyone else who can read this poem and smile with good memories.
