Mother & Son

He faces the world
Armed with a rose and a shield
His mother’s blessing

  2. Wow! What an image. Once a mother has blessed this journey it is easier to face it bravely. There is so, so much wrapped around these brief lines dripping from a perfect title.

      1. When you weave words, so accurately and as carefully as you do, it is what lies between them that tells the real story. You are welcome, my friend!

      Can’t express my gratitude. With the struggles over the past month it’s been daunting. My post was written back in Sept. Thank you for having the compassion you have. I’m so grateful. ❤️

  5. Ahh, the blessing of a mother is always a protection and a sweet fragrance. There are always those special sons that make motherhood magical. You are one of those 😀
    Tender and strong at the same time.
    Loved it!!

  7. Reblogged this on Sometimes Silver Linings are Blue and commented:
    It’s a beautiful feeling when someone feels the emotions I write. When someone is inspired to write about your words themselves… Well, that’s spectacular 😉 Nothing.. I mean nothing, can describe the feeling when it’s inspired because of your child.. ❤️
    Ryan is an amazing writer who moves me with his words. I know he will do the same for you.

      1. Oops, I meant to put a comma. Although I’m sure you get lots of comments about your ‘cara’ I meant to write “Beautiful, vecino”. Vecino is Spanish for ‘neighbour’, if you hadn’t checked it out already.
