What a fine tribute to your mother. She knew that setting an example really counted. Your rhyming couplets was a joy to read. Didn't matter that it wasn't broken up into verses. Read just fine as is. Thanks for sharing. Les

Many the time my siblings and I would walk in a line behind my mother. Sometimes we got lucky and got a ride. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words.

This is such a lovely work of poetry. The faith of your mother shows strongly in your words as well as in the fact that her children, though following different paths, still are faithful. I loved this in rhyme and in message. Well written, and a joy to read.

What a FABULOUS poem, seken - I just loved it!

You are a great story teller - I could see it all playing out in my head.

Oh, what would we do without praying mothers and the deep abiding faith that they pass on?

So very, very well done, my friend! I popped into your profile page, but you haven't created a space for guests'
messages ... so hurrah for you - and your mum -right here and now! God bless her and you!!

    Thanks so much for reading and reviewing so generously.
    I inly joined Fanstory in March 2013 so I don't know about
    "guest space" so can you help?

    Go to the second column on your profile page that says, "what would you like to share?" - write something there ... and then anyone who "visits" will be able to comment/leave messages.

    Thanks so much for your help. I did try that but got some weird message so I deleted. Thanks I'll try again.

    You can delete the weird ones and leave the ones your like! There are all sorts of "fans" on Fanstory! That's what makes it such a unique space!!

I reminiscent and nostalgic look back upon childhood years.
Your poem can't fail to get each reader to reflect on his or her own childhood growing up - and it is remarkable that a certain amount of faith in each of our cases has brought us to where we are now.

This is such an uplifting and spiritually moving poem. A peace washes over as the reader is taken through the narrator's childhood and then reminded of their own.

This work has reached the exceptional level

I really enjoyed reading your poem. It is written in perfect rhyme with a smooth even flow. It also brought back old memories of when I was a small child, we did exactly the same as you have written. This is an exceptional poem, in my opinion. Great job. Bill

Hello Seken58,
Nice piece of poetry depicting faith in God!
It beautifully pictures the growth of faith in the children along with their physical growth under guardianship of their mother.
Its language is simple having spontaneous flow with nice rhyming scheme, lively imagery and pictorial quality.
Its 1st two lines and the last six lines are particularly notable.
Excellent!!

This one gives the reader some food for thought. It is an interesting story of how you were raised. I am relieved you all grew up to remain close to God. The flow and rhyme of your poem makes it a very smooth read.

Very nice story poem about faith. The words flowed well and it had good rhyme and rhythm. Good imagery. I liked the artwork you chose. It looks like an altar or some powerful force. Thank you for sharing.
