Mothers Honor And Memory In Classic Verse
A long meditation on Mothers Day celebrating mother love through poems by Rossetti Field and Allen, with notes on authorship disputes and a tribute to the Madonna of the Trail statue. The piece cites Abraham Lincoln and Coleridge as influences, mentions Bryant Baker’s statue near Ponca City, and recalls poems about mothers from The Princess, Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep, and Rock Me to Sleep Mother.
