Cold mornings and a fuel stove
Huddled round the fire
Munching our breakfast
Shivered conversations
The delivery of a hot meal
Always guaranteed to be
Overdone, burnt, a challenge.
But never detracting from what was important
Your love for us, your care.
A mother I cherish.
As years slip away
Your memory stays strong.

My Mum used to make the best braised steak and onion casserole and Irish stew. One serve was never enough 😀
Isn’t good we such good memories.
awww. This reminds me of a book my favorite author wrote. It’s For One More Day by Mitch Albom. It says that you can see the purest love in your mother’s face. 🙂
Lovely, lovely, take! ❤
