Popped
‘Anne Campbell’s
birthday today,
June 4th'
just now
on my
Facebook feed
popped up.
Yesterday was
my birthday,
June 3rd. .
Happy but
sad birthday.
First birthday
since Mum
popped off.
When I
blew out
my candles,
I wished
that Mum
had for
my birthday
popped round.
I’ll do
like I
often do
and say
to myself,
‘Where’s Mum?’
She’ll be
back soon.
She’s just
popped out’.

I think your mum must have been a remarkable woman, Lee. I so appreciate all your poems about missng her. I share your sentiments....miss my mom so much; it's been 11 years since she passed and I think of her almost every day.
