Her Unfull Arms

Her arms are loaded down  -  overflowing  -  bare
But will they every be full?
Knowing her child won't ever be in her loving embrace?
A mother's arms provide love  - comfort  - strength
Her child is now somewhere else  - gone  - taken
Dead
Love a mother when she hugs you
With her unfull arms.

  1. i often think about the huge impact that the death of my parents' first child had on them. he died at 6 months. i don't think they ever fully got over it.
