"...at a pace that dizzied me" This is an apt description of this work. As I read it, initially curious and confused, I became more and more intrigued...by your mother, and your memories of her. I honestly didn't want it to end, because I felt there was so much more to know. Silly me! You pared it down to those few lines, and that's what makes this poetry so good. Nice work, indeed!

Wow, this is a powerful poem. "She let me in to her soul and

I got to be part of it too." How connected we always are, even when we aren't. Beautiful.

I want to say that this is bittersweet, but that's not quite right. It is, however, somehow sad while being incredibly sweet at the same time. The last lines really struck a chord in me.

A small piece of life told with a wonderful conciseness.

Nicely done.
