EC- This is a great sentence: “as if my mother could give me any less than herself.” So true and so meaningful in every way. Thanks for sharing. 🙌🏼

Thank you so much! It took me years to learn the lessons that led to that line.

Thank you for sharing those Sijo. It is such an interesting format for writing poetry and thoughts and impressions. I am sure your son will appreciate the sijo once he reads them as they allow him to get a glimpse and snapshot of your thoughts at the time you wrote them for him.

Thank you for your kind words. Sijo is fun; the first poem here was my first and last attempt! lol But it will be the inspiration for one of the craft prompts I'll be offering. I love your sijos! I'd be interested in reading about your process for writing them.
