Tomorrows Words Today

Mom A small word Representing a big heart I lack the vocabulary I cannot adequately express Still I will search for the words You keep me humble Grounded My heart has been softened by your spirit You with God's help granted me breath Without you I would not be I am more because you are gentle You wish to hear my thoughts You have dreamt along with me Not your own dreams but mine Yours is the one voice I long to hear Even at a distance you are near I think of you Mothers day is a day away You are not here to hear what I say But I know that you know You are loved this and every other day I can't thank you enough Sometimes life has been tough We've had to deal with some stuff Life has taken us on a ride We made it out the other side When I think of you I smile So glad you are my mom Some may not get you You always make me laugh Others may have moms None are quite like you One of my favorite people Strong in just the right way Soft in the ways that matter Funny Determined Generous Always there for me The most special Mom Written for Mom today for tomorrow, I love you mom.

Very sweet write! :) Your Mama will be proud. From what I remember reading somewhere...she gets on here and reads your work and corrects the spelling, right? That's what Mom's are for! BTW...about your comment about not "seeing" the jacaranda tree? If you really want to...go to my poem, People and Places of my world and copy paste the URL to see my FB album that I've dedicated to my Poetry Soup Friends. You will see several shots of the tree. It is worth seeing... :)

What a gorgeous tree. For me blue and purple look the same so it still is very colourful. I think God was feeling very artistic when he created this Beauty. Thanks for introducing me to it.
