Mama's Soft Music

When tears rolled down little Mia's cheeks mama's soft music was always there to sing her lullabies to sleep during the summer, winter, and even in the springs mama's music still sang even when mama wasn't around to speak Her music sufficed and was always there to inscribe a melodious picture in her little Mia's eyes they reflected mama's feelings, her teachings, her conscience, her thoughts, her hopes, and her pride the music emerged as Mama danced her subtle fingers gently between her favorite harp's hips gradually entertaining and inviting courage, comfort and laughter to surge around her little Mia's teeth quietly sending little Mia to sleep Mama's composition and words made little Mia wonder what vanished fear from her little feet, and mama silently hoped that her little baby would grow to attain the legacy left within her reach.
