@PrimusInterInpares FOR EVER Why does God allow / mothers to leave? / Mother has no limit, / It is time without hour, / light that does not go out / when the wind blows / and the rain falls, / velvet hidden / in the wrinkled skin, / pure water, pure air, / pure thought. /

[marcelombra]

Dying happens / with what is fleeting and passes / without a trace. / Mother, in her grace, / is eternity. / Why God remembers / - Profound mystery - / to take her one day? / If I were King of the World, / I would make a law: / Mother never dies, / mother will always be / along with her son / and he, even though old, / will be as tiny / as a grain of corn. - Carlos Drummond de Andrade, "Para Sempre"

Moving. Visually stunning. A work of art.
