there are dates
one remembers
etched in one’s consciousness
numbers in stone
and this date
in January
I will never forget
Mercy Hospital
the doctors the nurses
you shivering
a door closing
and crying in Dr. Tassey’s arms
the calls to my sister Theresa
my brother Johnny
and George in my doorway
at two in the morning
our tears our tears
and you gone
leaving this emptiness
in my heart

A beautiful remembrance, Leonard.
Thank you, Sarah.
Mothers may leave this earth but they will never leave your heart. When you are remembering your mom, she is there giving you a big hug and a gentle kiss. Beautiful Leonard.
Thank you, Patricia.
A very poignant write, her love will always stay with you
Thank you.
Thank God for tears and memories. The tough ones are hard to forget, but they are mostly replaced by pleasant ones- at least for most. I’m sure your mama was a wonderful person.
Thank you, Michael.
Beautiful depth in your words, may you continue to receive comfort.
Thank you.
That was so beautiful, so touching Leonard. I envy you the love your Mother so obviously had for you and the love you had for her. I thought I had that too but rejection of a child no matter how old that child is cuts so deep and the pain of seeing others having such warm relationships loving relationships still hurts. You were so lucky Leonard to be so loved and still loved. God Bless.
Thank you, Anna, for these kind words. May you find peace with your memories.
Very tender and poignant words of love.
Thank you.
Very nicely said. You covered a lot in those few words.
Thank you.
