My Mother, My Rainbow

She is a clear carbon copy 
of the
Creator,
an immortal image made 
by the
Indellible Ink,
she shares the shield that 
can
never shrink,
she is a mild mother, a 
model and
a mentor.
Her radiance reminds me 
of the
Rainbow,
cloaked with cool, calm and
creative colours,
from her heart hails 
hospitality and
honour,
she hides in the most 
High's holy...
hollow.
Red: she is so righteous 
and
refreshing.
Orange: she is ordained, 
orderly
and original,
Yellow, she is youthful and
yielding... so optimal.
Green, she is graceful, 
godly and
still growing.
Blue: she is a blessing and 
a beauty
to behold.
Indigo: industrous, 
intelligent and
infinite;
Violet, she is vibrant, 
visionary and
virtuous,
/She/ is more that what a 
millom
word can mould.
Dedicated to my Mom and 
all mothers IN THE
WORLD...
