A farm girl, she was born a year before the 1918 flu pandemic. Mother was a great storyteller. However, I don’t recall any of the difficulties or people dying in the family. I would guess that social distancing was easy in rural northeast, Alabama. — kenne

Thinking about Mother
I thought about yesterday
Remembering the moments
I thought about today
Taking a deep breath.
I thought about tomorrow
Exceeding my grasp.
I thought about time
Wondering about timeless.
I thought about life,
Asking the questions.
I thought about people,
Knowing not what I see.
I thought about what is,
Wondering why?
I thought about ideals,
Seeking what should be.
I thought about truth,
Confusing it with the facts.
I thought about art,
Becoming aware.
I thought about love
Touching the feeling.
I thought about Joy,
Feeling love inside.
I thought about you,
Walking with long shadows
I thought again of tomorrow
Sharing your path.
These are my words to you, Mother. We miss you every day, especially on Mother’s Day!

Wonderful words, Kenne!
