Here in five remarkable stazas the love and tenderness of a mother is demonstrated. From a poetic point of view, your ytechnique is superb. Hearty congratulations. Best wishes, Paul

I enjoy using history and places in my poems. Perhaps you remember the ones about Mexico and Guatemala. I heldmy breath on this one till you could read it. I am so pleased that you like it! Thank you for the generous words and the kudo. That is encouraging. Always, Sylvia

I'll post it somewhere else where Keeper of the Heart is posted. I enjoyed writing this one. There is a lot to be learned if one listens. Sylvia
