A really nice gift for a wonderful mother! This one of a kind book has the beauty of the handmade paper, the special sentiment of the original and unique poem from artist Glenda Castillo. All together evoque love, care and the most precious feelings. The frames and graphics are also very inspirational and moving. The book is signed by the artist.
The granite looking papers are the background for the following poem:
I Know You Are My Mom Because…
…you took care
of my scraped knee
when I fell from the bike;
…you were my first teacher of devotion
and sacrifice;
…you prayed for me
even when you didn’t know I needed a prayer;
…you gave me the best advice … always;
…you made our house
a home
where knowledge and wisdom
flourished;
…you encouraged me
to start all over again;
…your eyes were bright
and your heart filled with love
when you talked
about me;
…you showed me the beauty
of the rose
and the spines;
…you missed me
when I said goodbye;
…your heart and soul
couldn’t wait
for me to come back.
That’s why…
…your name is almost
sacred for me;
…you are so close
to my heart
and you’ll always be;
…when others tell me
I have some of your attributes,
I’m proud of it;
…I will remember you …
always…
…I will love you …
eternally…
