Mother Love

She lives her love day by day
with all that is feminine,
a touch,kiss or knowing look,
concern,red-lettered in her book;
Particular to detail
self-sacrifice a routine,
as she walks the extra mile,
ever ready with a smile;
The days news eager to hear,
her wise counsel,stills a fear
open arms brings her love near,
her warmth dries a child's tear.

Patience to give herself,time and again
soft and beautiful and feminine.
