Mother

Way of moving in and out of decades,

Not ever being defeated or knocked down.

Rising up to the sun,

Falling only alone at night with the moon.

Resurrecting hope in the way that you run,

The smiles you hand out for free.

Nights you sat by my bed to make sure that I could sleep,

Taking away all of my demons,

Singing to me as an angel,

You rest on my shoulder during these days when I am weak.

Satisfy my sense with glances and hidden expressions.

Make this world come alive to me,

Thanking you for the dreams that you have instilled into me,

You have never tried to hold me down,

Or tried to take my soul.

I have sung your praises to the pigeons on the sidewalk,

To the ants crawling up my chair,

No creature will live on earth ,

Without hearing your hymn,

Or about the life that you have given me.
