Mother's Day Poem: Love Has a Gentle Grace

Love has a gentle grace by Michael R. Burch for Beth on Mother’s Day Love has a gentle grace; you have not seen her unless you’ve looked into your mother’s eyes and seen her faith —serene, composed and wise— that you’re the center of her very being (as once, indeed, she carried you inside.) Love has no wilder beauty than the thought that you’re the best of all she ever sought. (And if, perhaps, you don’t believe my song, can your mother be wrong?) ### Your Gift by Michael R. Burch for Beth Counsel, console. This is your gift. Calm, kiss and encourage. Tenderly lift each world-wounded heart from its fatal dart. Mend every rift. Bid pain, “Depart!” Save every sorrow for your own untaught heart.
