Mother Says
Birds fly through my window
With colorful feathers and
Silver, Gold musical notes
Mother says the songs
Are meant to bring cheer
And ignite imagination.
The forest isn't scary
The monsters come out in the dark
But I have a heart that glows
Through the dark.
Mother says a heart of gold
Keeps the soul stronger
Than the demons.
I climb mountains that touch
The clouds and beyond
If I reach out I can gather
Tears from the clouds.
Mother says the clouds are
Closer than they appear
And they rain tears that
Soak into the earth and create
Something sad into something
Full of life and sunshine.
Climbing heights make me
Taller and braver than warriors
I can see the world in another
Perception beyond my sight
Mother says beauty is preserved
In different perceptions.
Everything is beautiful in its
Own way. Flowers are filled
With liquid sunshine. Hearts
Are filled with love.
Mother says everyone needs love.
And I always have love. If I
Look hard enough…
I can see the hearts in everything.
