Theme: Mother/Mom
Were daughters and mothers
Not so long ago.
We give and take
And take and give
Along time's endless row.
Love is passed
And love received
To be passed on again:
A precious heirloom
Twice, twice blessed,
A spiritual cardigan.
I'll put it on
And treasure it,
The me I have received,
And when the roles
Reverse again,
I'll have what I most need.
So may our love
Go on and on,
A hundred thousand years;
Mothers and daughters,
Daughters and mothers,
Through joys and other tears.
MY MOTHER
ME
and
IRENE
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!

Blessings,

Wow, haven't visited in a while -- and you've done great with regards to the new blog design as well as this week's Photo Hunt entry! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is the perfect angle on this theme. Also love your new graphics. Cool.
ReplyDeletethis is so eautiful
ReplyDeleteNot sure if you are a mother, but Happy Mothers Day Anni!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful photo of three generations of your family. Have a Happy Mother's Day
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful tribute, love you.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment on the photo of my Mom. I was surprised how beautiful it was. It was just a quick photo while she was watching TV the other day. I hadn't yet gotten the curtains up in my new office/lounge in our new abode and I wasn't sure if it would turn out.
ReplyDeleteA note on the poem on your post.
My mother keeps saying "I wish I could do more. I feel badly that you have to do so much..." I have to keep reminding her that she looked after me for a long time when I couldn't "help out"....
What a lovely poem about mothers and daughters!
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting my PH-post. All of my older family photos are pictures from neagtives or slides. I wanted to show a picture of my mother, but I'll have to work it in at some later date.
I am using my very much neglected Swedish-language blog for PhotoHunt today. So even if I sign as "Tina" I am also "Anna" of Anna's Adornments as well as Sara Cat.
Hugs,
Tina

Anni that was just lovely...I love that poem! And what a clever way to describe motherhood as a cardigan! A little bit like Josephs Technicolor dream-coat (coat of many colours) A mothers coat is a coat of many roles.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous Mothers Day Anni
Happy Mother's Day,my friend!
ReplyDeleteYou look BEAUTIFUL, then and NOW!
You are such a wonderful friend and MOTHER!
May this Mother's Day be one of the best with more to come in years!
YOU ROCK, MOMMY!
