*~My Poems~*

~SHE~

~I composed this poem 9/29/2004, the ArchAngels' Feastday.
I had planned to compose a poem for Mother Mary, but somehow,
every time I thought about it the words would never come up.
Then, in the beginning of September I received, via
'US Postal Mail, a letter from poetry.com stating that
they wanted me to send an 'unpublished' poem
to be added in a publication for 2004.
This came on paper, I proof read it, and sent it.~

~Then, the evening of 9/29 I had an E-mail from them again stating;

...The International Library of Poetry wishes to feature an entire page devoted exclusively to the poetry of
Bebianne Clavette in a collection of new poems written by the Best Poets we have encountered...

I was, of course, touched again.
A couple of days after I started to create its background frame for it.  I then suddenly realized the date and time I was composing the poem in my computer.  I was in the process writing it at 9:29 PM, the same numbers as the month: 9/29/04.  I just voiced out "wow, this must be a Special poem!"  And it is, simply because when I started to compose it, the words welled up as my fingers were typing them, tears came, my heart was beating a hundred miles a minute, my fingers couldn't catch up with the words that were pouring out.  I felt deep, deep love for Mother Mary as the words kept pouring, so much so that I had to stop to get a tissue.
Mother Mary has been the only "mothering" person I can/could go to when I need/needed a mother like figure to confide into.  And for that constant "calling Her" for help created in me a Special Love for Her, and that has been going on since my very young years.
As I was writing the dedication part I thought of the mothers that do love their children (like I do mine) and something in me just wanted to dedicate this poem to "all loving mothers" also. 
And so, to you, LOVING MOTHER are my words to You!~
