The Higher Calling ~ Motherhood
My nonet for the ninth of May.33 total reviews
Comment from Ross E Silke
This is very beautiful and simple to read and follow through--but the message is emotional with great poetic value. I enjoyed reading this and learning of your memories from giving birth to your first children.--What a joy that must have been after getting over a deep loss at first. I know couples that have miscarried and how tragic it is for them, the deep loss never seems forgotten as I learned from Christian families in the church I grew up in. But rest assured they are in Heaven with Daddy God having a much better time than on earth for sure! Sometimes I wonder if somehow it might have been God's best for them--who knows what life might have given them, maybe it would have been too unfair? I thank God every day for the life he gave me no matter what comes along as I know he kept me on earth for a reason needed and after my parents considered aborting with my Mom's illnesses and medication, my Grandma stepped in to keep me alive.--It reminds me of that this poem and description. Well done! In how much it spoke to me I'm happy to award this highly, and in its polished presentation, grammar, and style. Best and blessings to you, yours, and your children.

Thank you, dear Ross. Your heartfelt review is so very kind and encouraging. I am relieved to hear how God spared your life and how you are now blessing so many. I see marriage and fatherhood not far from you! Thank you, again, for the kind words and six stars.
Always my best to you,
Sally :+))
Comment from Debra White
Hi Sal :)
This is lovely nonet.
I always want to be a mother. It took lots of trying and hoping and praying and thankfully, it finally happened when I was 30. You're right, each baby certainly is a miracle and a blessing.
I love lines 2&3, such lovely imagery.
Sending you my best as always, Debra :) x

Thank you so much, dear Debra. I decided to do the double whammy: A nonet for the ninth and tribute to Motherhood. I can see mothering suits you well. Happy Mother?s Day to you! Have a wonderful weekend and hopefully sitting in an English garden with your family all around.
Always my best to you and yours,

Your nonet is a joy Sally, I enjoyed the sentiments and your endearing words, I feel the same about being a mother and my two girls are always willing to help me now instead of me helping them. Your poem uplifted my day Sally x
