Mommy is Here

Mommy is Here

A Poem by Siddartha Beth Pierce
"

for debileah, blessings to you...

"

Wondering when

with pen in hand

I may write you back

into being

 

Wondering when

with chisel bound

I may block you out

of eternal ground

 

The stone you wear

aches my soul

keeping me from you

 

I wish to write you

dig you

sculpt you

back into existence

 

Where I can say

once more

'I love you, dear'

 

And never fear

Mommy is here.

The short stanzas work really well to carry your message and thoughts. Refrain of "Wondering when" in those first two blocks works well too. The simplistic style, combined with your imagery, is a good way to not lose the sentiment while keeping the piece original.
Good work.
Thanks for sharing it.
