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.
