Mother

mother
                the matriarch
      spends time with her children 
her heart flows with much love and care
                    nonstop
                
  









* I would like to wish all my soup friends( ladies) a Happy Mother's Day! Whether you are a mother, stepmother, adoptive mother, foster mother,grandmother, or mother figure( aunt, cousin, teacher and etc).  Motherhood comes in different ways, it's not restricted to giving 
birth.

Thank you for your thoughtfulness in writing this for all of us mothers. Yes, so many times we are mothering a child not even our own. Your visits to my page are uplifting. Sara

This is a precious gem Alexis, thank you!! I agree, motherhood is not limited to those who have given birth. You have beautifully listed many of the beautiful hearts which have reached out and embraced with their nourishing hearts of love! I love this, it is a fave, beyond a shadow of a doubt <3 I'm glad you had a blessed Mother's Day, as you had shared in a comment on one of my poems :) Hugs to you Alexis!

I enjoyed the Poet's note even more than the poem. Yes, motherhood is not restricted to giving birth. Thanks for your wishes. Also to you too a Happy Mother's Day, though belated.
