I kick off Poetry Week with what I refer to as my signature piece, Mom and Bocelli. Today is Mom’s birthday, so I thought it fitting.
Mom was born Lois Jane Holmes in Lansford, PA, February 18, 1921. She loved her family and instilled “loving family” in all of us. She was a seamstress, a crossword and quote-acrostic puzzler, a meatloaf to beef bourguignon chef.
It's Poetry Week at the Word Shark. Starting today with Karen's signature piece to her mother and Bocelli. Watch this space for more throughout the week. My poems appear on Wednesday.
Thank you for the reblog, Shirani. It’s a stellar line-up this week!
You are most welcome Karen. It’s exciting to read all these poets all week.
