THE HAMMER

THE HAMMER From a very young age it was just so fascinating for me to watch a Carpenter use the hammer.   Then at every opportunity I would attempt to use the hammer only to experience the pain of bruising my fingers with it.   Yet I had a special love for the hammer that remained with me so much so when ever I wanted to decorate the walls in my home, I would run with excitement to get the hammer and as I would use the hammer to drive the nail in the wall to hang a beautiful picture or an ornament these words rang out from my husband, “Margaret, what are you doing?” My reply, “I’m putting another picture on the wall.” He interjected and demonstrated to me how to effectively use the hammer by measuring sixteen inches (16”) across to find a beam and then use the hammer to securely fasten the nail into it thus it would remain.   This revelation reminded me of how one day while doing some work in the front of my yard when suddenly a rock opened up and from behind it came a large a

WHAT ABOUT YOUR MOTHER?

May this Article not only challenge you but also bless and inspire you! WHAT ABOUT YOUR MOTHER? Most of us if not all of us would not allow the thought of losing a mother, or a loved one for that matter to ever come to mind – well, one day while doing some household chores, I found a picture of my mother hidden in an arrangement of flowers, picking it up - this question rang out “What about your mother?” The reality then hit me; it was me who had hidden her picture in the vase because I did not want to think about her passing and while holding her picture in my hand O how I wished I could see her and hear her voice again.   Then inspiration came to write this poem about her.   She has been gone for almost Thirty (30) years, yet each time I think about her it is as if she just left! MY MOTHER Wishing I could see and hear you speak to me again. Yet I could not understand why you always interrupted My play time with the other children to learn how to bake bread.
