Stronghold

Moving, Mikaila. Like watching rain fall. . .

Thank you dear <3

Intensely fleshed in description, as if being there.

Thanks Johnny! I remember a lot like this from her :)

"Torchlight hair "- this takes be back to being kids and lighting rubbing alcohol on fire across the coffee table in the living room

"snared"- vines,kudzu capturing

"border patrol;
A block I'll never forget "- the dangerous book for men-how to evade a road block chapter lol.

"You braved conditions
too human to be weather;
Wrenching the moss toned
umbrella "- running through gunfire,gall granted you safe passage,so bold it brought us both here today.we laid it all on the line.


"poring over a downpoured
patio
havens had hearty arms"- gale blew even the brightest stars ,pulling as children hanging from fathers and mothers feet as firemen poles

"And I knew my mother
is timber...

not twigs " - she could be anything and so she instilled those building thoughts into me

refreshing happy write. i feel like playing outdoor games on a sunny day now.

well penned.

Thank you my friend! She is my hull and the bulwarks in my heart. I hope to instill the same safety in my children as well.

Great write here my dear poet!
Motherhood is such a challenging job... U need a lot of heart stamina and determination to uphold its threshold....and there is ur mama as strong as timber!!

Love Autumn xoxo

Thank you Autumn <3

There's a bond between mother & daughter that is unshakable, unbreakable & highly potent in it's power. Beautifully expressed my friend. Respectfully,
Shadow👣

Thank you so much!

4.9 stars......quite a mother of a performance.

standing up for the twigs - a single twig has no strength but a bunch of twigs tied together are as strong as timber :-)))))))))))))))))))))))))

Unfortunately my mother was jello :-(    Excellent as always :-))))))

I'm so sorry David, I truly cannot imagine and I realize I was very fortunate. That sentiment is utterly true
