Found Poem 3/23

Mother's Big Surprise 

New color burned on his skin, cold but warmth did 

not leave her fingertips, you seem so far away. 

You slid under the table sitting tired

 she close her eyes, speaking softly
I'm proud of you

I didn't know you could read.

          The main idea of my poem is that this mother found out that her son finally learned to read so she is so shocked and happy she doesn't know what emotion to feel. That is why I put the phrase cold but warmth did not leave her finger tips. Which shows the reader that she doesn't know how to react to this big event in her child's live.  As well that is why she closes her eyes because she is crying at this great accomplishment of her child. Which shows the reader that she truly cares for her son.

          The theme and message of my poems that you should always be happy and/or shock to the accomplishment of those you care for. I believe that this is the message and theme of the poem is this because this mother was crying when she found out that her son was reading. Also she now knows that he is growing up and that she is doing something correctly if her son is learning to read.  Which shows the reader that she feels unhappy knowing that soon he will be able to do more things without her.
