Nov 9The prompt was to write Maggie Devers A seven word poem about your mother I wrote it in my dream and It had evaporated when I woke up 
But I did dream of my daughter As a newborn asleep on my chest. The smell at her crown was there, And her little chest rose the same And I was a new mother again.
I have carried the feeling all day Thinking how our children hold us close When their tiny hand grips our finger I think of my mother and know For her, seven words are not enough.
