Hi MariVal.
This is a well done senryu that tells of the love a child sees in her mother's eyes when she looks in them. It works both ways.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

A mother's love is seen in her actions and her eyes. Children can see themselves as the apple of their mother's eyes. I like your way of expressing that connection.

In a loving mother's arms is the best place to be. Thank you for sharing this poem and presentation with us. I enjoyed reading. I felt emotion as I read.

This was another very sentimental poem. A mother usually embraces her role fiercely in regards to protecting her children. Yet there is nothing more gentle than a mother's touch. Gretchen

It is such a beautiful thing when you could see yourself in the eyes of one who love you dearly. I think it is known that parents see themselves in their children's eyes, but how special it is when a child can see himself in the eyes of his mother.

Another beautifully well-done piece of artistry. I think the rich red gave it an elegant, albeit sweet, feel.

Very nice work! I liked this one. You are such a talent to pull off so much with so few words.

There's really nothing like parental love, it tends to shape the very cultural framework of our lives. How else would we understand what life is all about, beautifully written Gypsy, blessings Roy
