Modern Poems About Mothers

Mom’s Puzzle
Mom's eyes squint,
digits dance in air,
Wi-Fi code mystery,
Mom forgets where.
Weekly ritual,
passwords misplaced,
searching pockets,
memory's grace.
"Was it the cat's name?"
"Or your birth year?"
Laughter blooms bright,
we persevere.
Digits tumble,
patterns obscure,
"Try it again, dear,"
Mom reassures.
Victory finally,
signal secure,
Mom's puzzle solved,
loved and sure.

Flushed Memories
Thumb slips on screen,
cherished photos erased,
moments of laughter,
faces loved, now displaced.

our stories remain,
in heartbeats and whispers,
in joy and in pain.

Mom learns to text,
her fingers quick on keys,
navigates the app store,

on a sleek, smart screen,
FaceTimes with friends,
in places she's never been.
A tablet in her hand,
she reads, she shops,
tackles tech puzzles,
without a single stop.
From smart homes to gadgets,

a modern-day explorer,
in this digital dream.
