Mom’s Whisper of Love

Francesco Favetta Francesco Favetta Jul 12, 20230

Francesco celebrates a mother’s love in this poignant poem – exclusively for Different Truths.

Mom
whisper of love
silent rustle
in the cradles you love
in the silence of the nights.
Looks
and love songs
those light hands
and the caresses on the faces
of children born in pain.
Mom
they are ointments
those words of yours
whisper in the night
to the chant of the lullaby.
Still your breath
on the skin and lips
pink mom in heart
your every smile
it is a wonderful flower.
