I need to write a birthday poem for my mother
Things I want to include in the poem
- Born on March 19, 1921
- Birthplace on a farm outside Lamont, Oklahoma
- Very small at birth and did not get weight until parents took her into Lamont a month or so after she was born
- Worked in Las Vegas, Nevada, at what is now University Medical Center near the end of World War II
- Worked as a waitress until she was 83 or 84
- Gave birth to four children - 2 girls and 2 boys
- Has eight grandchildren
- Has five great grandchildren
- Started writing poetry when she was 81 or 82
I'm not sure of the form, but I think I will use a poetry form for this poem. I find poetry forms work well when I'm not sure about everything I want in a poem or even the title.
