WRITER'S CRAMP PROMPT:a journal is found on a park bench
To whom belongs these handwritten sorrows?
These hopes and these dreams of a thousand tomorrow's.
A scrolled out story of secrets and strife;
To whom belongs this beautiful life?

A memoir of treasures transcribed on each page
The wisdom and strength; the journey of age
The tale of her triumphs; the woes of her loss
the lessons she learned; the bridges she crossed.

This lady's a hero, she's lived and endured!
I need to go tell this; it needs to be heard!
But wait - this writing- it is like no other;
I know who this is-GOOD GOD-it's my mother!
