A Psalm For Mom
With warm, loving memories of my mom,
appreciation and blessing I frame.
Like poets of old, I’m penning this psalm
to give praise to those who earn that good name.
Movers and shakers of the happy home
risk takers, bakers and merrymakers
mood breakers / servants with a rare genome
Salutations to moms, our caretakers.
Even moms sometimes feel failure, defeat;
circumvent arguments, speak peace instead.
Once in a while, she will need to retreat -
grant her a garden with grace overhead.
A garden where mothers can go to pray;
a place that provides strength for each new day.
