Mother Dear

My mother has always been able to feel approaching grave yards, and has been kicked out of one psychic and not even been let in by another.

Mother Dear,

Oh mother dear, oh mother dear,

What are those strange feelings you feel,

What is it that clings unseen to your hand?

Is that why they are always cold,

What is it that causes the fortune tellers to shy away?

Or not even let you in,

What is it that causes you to shiver when we are near, a graveyard we’ve never seen

What is it about you that the crows do follow?

Oh mother dear, oh mother dear,

What is it that follows…

mothers have been gifted with a sixth sense which allows them to forsee the future of their children, know the doom that approaches their families etc etc...they even know the magical language of babies...so its no wonder a mother equals a supernatural existence

My feet are always cold but I refuse to wear socks; I don't even own a pair...I wonder if that means anything...probably not.

Trying to explain the supernatural usually ends up raising more questions than it answers. Your mother has a "gift"...that's pretty damn cool. Thanks for sharing this with us.

Spooky. Nice atmosphere you've built up!

spoooky. she sees dead people?

[AWickedMoon]

Only one, an old man that used to stand at the end of my crib. But she has been kicked out of one fortune teller and on another occasion not even let in to a different one. They said that there was something evil around her. I guess this could explain why she goes to the hospital 5+ times a year. She can also feel when a graveyard is near and it creeps her right out, and her hands are always cold.

that is very spooookeeey, but equally cool

Love the mood of this one... Sometimes, the ones we love the most are the ones we know the least...

[AWickedMoon]

Thank you. That is very true. :)

Don't feel alone this runs in my family as well. I'm intuitive and experience many strange things. This is a well written piece. Good job wickedmoon.

[AWickedMoon]

Thank you. Personally I always see things that disappearing, and I always hear people when no one is saying anything (but that could just be my crazy talking). I believe in other beings, but I also take after my dad with a more sciencey part, in which whenever I’m in those situations I think of every logical reason before I can conclude and I never go looking. :)

My aunt also have one blue and one green eye and she's very crafty.(if you get the joke)

I love my mother. but this poem isn't quite talking about her being a mother, but being a witch, am i right? ;)

Great poem! :)

[AWickedMoon]

Ha-ha! I have no idea to my knowledge she's not, however I do know that my aunt have one blue and one green eye and they grew up in a small town on the side of a mountain . :P
