GARDENING
I put on Mama's T-shirt,
donned her jade jacket
that she wore to garden.
Her sweet spirit remained,
I felt her loving presence
planting my sunflower seeds.
She savored gardening,
she grew vegetables and flowers,
her favorite color was green.
The wind blew through
grass like waves on the sea,
a royal-blue tent watched
above the Cherry Mountain.
A rain crow resounded
and tranquility filled my soul.

I wish all my blogger friends a very Happy Mother's Day.

I love the photo of you and Blanche. Mother's Day makes me sad as I remember my own dear mother who has been gone many years now.
