Frederic Leighton-Mother and Child
"Backward, turn backward,O Time, in your flight.Make me a child again just for tonight!Mother come back from the echoless shore,Take me again to your heart as of yore."
Anna, my friend, Sister Soldiers' Angel and fellow blogger, and I spent a long lovely afternoon together talking about our Mothers and angels and roses. There is no better way to spend a snowy afternoon. I don't remember where I found this poem (apologies to the author) but it sits on my shelf next to a photograph of my mother.
