I wanted to write a tribute for my mom even though she is no longer with us. Both the image and the poem were created by me........... My mother started life as a blue baby. Her umbilical cord was wrapped around her neck. This poem reflects the the next chapter in her life. This is one of the many events in my mother's life when she could have been seriously injured or died . This is why I believe in Guardian Angels!........This poem is about a fire that started 2 houses away in the General store, then touched the house next to it, then hit my grandparents house. The smoke was very thick! It was not only hard to see ,it was hard to breathe. Getting out was not easy! As my grandparents tried to save what they could, people were stealing it as fast as they put it out. The damage was so bad my grandparent's house had to be re-built My grandfather was a volunteer fireman for 36 years. I think this was the day he started his journey. :o) helvi
