Thinking bout you today

How scared you must have been

Trembling
Holding onto papas hand

Leaving Italy
Your homeland
To enter America

Living in a ghetto of new York
No money
Only papas love

Raising me in poverty
Even though
I was made rich by your love

The kitchen was your sanctuary
Always filled with aromas
Of a loving mother

All the nights spent at my bedside
Nuturing me through
Chicken poxs and colds

Beaming at every birthday
As age took it's toll

I love you mama

I am me

Because of you



Tammy

Beautiful thoughts makes me think back when my great grandparents immigrated from Prussia (after leaving Germany) to the USA in 1906 and the life they struggled to maintain and make a life for my grandfather and for the ones to follow. bigsmile
