Mother's Day Poem- Carolyns Sonnet

Beauteous mother earth
You have followed the tradition
Mother that hath given birth
Raising us well was your ambition
Holding my hand through the hardest of transitions

Loving lady
Sleepless nights we made unnerving
some of our escapades taht seem shady
For all the love and care, we are undesrving

Compassion
As a suit of armour it is your fashion

In wild unknown country, y ouve reaped and sown
Working to the bone
A farmer
Nurturing this disastrous weed into a flower

Memories of the past
Cut knees, celiac disease, screaming please
Although I do grow fast
No matter my age
In my continuous book of my life
Words of wisdom you shared are imprinted on the pages
How to be strong in a world full of strife
