THE PLEASURE OF A MEMORY
The pleasure of a memory---what a source of joy, yet in the innumerable pursuits of my life there will be one outstanding and unforgetable memory---my mother.
Sweet, kind and forgiving and the BEST pal, that one may have was my mother. Motherhood love not understood by man to a true degree was overflowing at all times, of which the recipient could not fully appreciate until too late. But through life's sojourn, both weary and glad, I can not help but dwell one pleasant memory---my mother. And to her these mere and humble collections of thought are dedicated.
