Mother's Hug

Leaving home To pursue a life She bursted into tears Like a detonated time bomb And I felt I could split half She drew me close Her arms swallowed mine It was a meaningful pose The only reason of her fine THE HUG Words escaped her But the messages were clear From the bossom of her hug 'God loves you As I do too Let this be your shelter Further and farther Remember me always In all your ways Warm, wet , dry and cold From my heart of gold Achieve everything I'll miss you' I melted feet cold I secured warmth From the tea mug For her assurance another hug To ground her faith. Her hands searched mine to hold As I must go. THE HUG AGAIN...
