Inside My Place

Dedicated to all of my children 

 I have gathered to me.

A Mother's Place 

Inside my place

my arms are wide open

to hug you tightly

and gather you to me.

Inside my place

my smile is inviting

to welcome you warmly

and gather you to me.

Inside my place

my touch is light

to stroke your head gently

and gather you to me.

Inside my place

my hands are in your hands

to guide you strongly

and gather you to me.

Inside my place

my tears are yours

to share with you only

and gather you to me.

Inside my place

my only intent is

to comfort you tenderly

and gather you to me.

Inside my place

my heart is open

to love you deeply

and gather you to me.

Inside my place

my memory will linger

to nurture you soulfully

and gather you to me.

I have created a page for Anna's Diary.  It can be found under the Tab titled Anna's Diary.

I have posted all of the entries to date there, starting with January 1, 1929.

Here is today's entry from Anna's Diary:

Wed. March 27, 1929

Went to N.Y. with Edythe.  She bought three dresses.  I brought one home for Rosalie who was taking care of baby.  Nothing for myself.  Very tired and early to bed.
