Mother Is Alright

Mother is alright she's mother
Every other mother dreams of sleep
Left to be completed on the other side
By mothers touch within itself if not in sight

The moon comes sooner than the afternoon or sooner 
Is far away and stays that way when other mothers come
To congregate, concentrate on being who they are
Mothers stand together close to falling off

They dare not go too deep too far into the water
The cliff is near to stop them from a dive
To halt the march or thought of wondering
It is alright to be a mother and no more

Even when it's not
Mother is alright
Is she not
