mother, a simple word
just six letters
“m” is for mine, meadow, meow
all the wonders of the world
wild meadow orchids
including all the colors
“o” ordinary, extraordinary
like the shape of a bird’s nest
a place to call home
a place to rest
“t” touch, tingle, tomorrow
time to feel
shape of earth
“h” Henry, hobnob,
hop skip and jump
helpless/clinging
“e” early, elbow, eyebrow
center of the circle
center of the world
“r” real, ready, regal
a little prayer for my mother
said out loud
or whispered to myself
my own, the one and only
MOTHER
mother
mama

This is lovely, Annell. I love all of the beautiful things you thought of to honour your mother.
This is very clever, Annell. I enjoyed reading all of the things you thought of.
My favorite is the letter T!
Splendid and loving way to sketch a mother, your mother.
What a wonderful way to recognize the word Mother and all that She means. beautiful Annell. Thanks for joining us today.
I love this! A very clever take on the prompt. My favorite letter is H! Don't know why, maybe it's hobnob!
Delightful acrostic.. each image is so vivid and the ending just on point perfect.
