To Mam
Like growing up, saying good-bye will never take
just one moment, or even this moment.
Like loving someone, is a hugeness made of many days and times.
Our good-byes have stuttered towards this closing.
We say good-bye to you mam, our girl, whose laughter and love
cradled us when we needed it and when we didn’t.
You leant close, to scold, to give much and forgive.
We too smile as we see you so vivid - yet not with us.
Your sharp brightness, mum-ness, crystal in our memory
Happy at young babies and sparkling dancing heels.
We mourn as we remember and can only be glad
That we are left and you are free and do not bear our loss.
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.
