Mothers Departure A CHALENGE CONTEST MAY #15
This poem-- MOMS SMILES depicts her departure
...to the new home
no where
on an airy road
to no where
yet it speaks of the whole truth
inch by inch
as she crept into the wilderness
created for all
no lack of space
all are
and will be welcome
one day
this happened five decades away
can any one relay
MY MOM'S SMILES

I wanted to walk
Further that I did with this piece. Your highlighted moments within the poem are dramatic, tho.
I would alter the title a bit: “This poem MOMS SMILES depicts her departure“ to only “Her Departure”
‘Course, if you were making this a contest entry, then the title is to include the subject of the contest…. And if you were making this a contest entry, you should also use the drop down menu on the Submit page to delineate it.
