Candle: 1988_WaterColor4 by Carol Hershey

8/23/08_1988_WaterColor4_ Poem by Betina Hershey Russo

This candle
I light for you, Mamma.
Blue everywhere, and such light
Glowing for you, Mamma.
Though the day may seem
Empty, or grey, when I light
This candle, write
This poem, gaze
At the blueness everywhere
Through your eyes...
Oh, the day is a glorious night
Of ignition and rare surprise
Really, this candle's for me, Mamma,
To feel your Motherly peace.
