Ahhh, another Hallmark holiday is here. Below is a poem I wrote recently that sums up my feelings about that role. I think I'm kinda ambivalent, after 21 years.
Inaudible whispers
Phantom touches
Layered, sheer
Evaporating
Heart aching
Breaking
Letting go
Letting be
Freeing
Part of me
Is you
Becoming you
Is me
Becoming null
Empty quiet
Peaceful oblivion
Slow tumble
Into new being
After mothering.

Ahhh, this is quite a summation of feelings even after 31 years - best part for me are new beginnings extensions of my sons, their sons!
