Mother

Melting in the moonlight

she gazed into her reflection,

corroded with imperfection

that blasted curse of age,


Tracing her stale wrinkles

those cracks in the earth,

nestled in the mud

soaked in her tears,

-----

The morning light shone

burning the barren earth,

mother lay there, all alone

not a word she spoke,


They carried her away

to the grave on the hill.



no life she had within...

but, mother saved the drought.

Hi
I chose the prompt: Puddles

I am very eager for feedback.. my poetry is rather shabby...
Anyways.. I put a lot of metaphor in here.. so if anyone is having confusion just ask and i'll explain
