Kim, Lovely poem! ! Title of song: Red Wing. Written in 1907 music by F. A. Mills, Lyrics by Thurland. It was sung by John Wayne in the 1943 film - Old Oklahoma - and again by John Wayne and Lee Marvin in the 1961 film - The Comancheros- also, John Wayne and Lauren Bacall in the 1976 file - The Shootist -
What a wonderful remembrance, Kim. You made me cry. She must have been so proud of what you have become; a great and dedicated Poet. A very touching write so beautifully written. The inclusion of the song enhanced the beauty of the poem. Five Stars! ! ! !
Admiring your mother of her virtue fills the air. Memories of her will live forever as she never departed but lived through her virtues always.
Excellent tribute to your mum Kim. They helped make us into what we are today.
