Notes About The Poem

Rock Me

Rock Me

Dearest Mother, 
how should I begin? 
You were/are mine, 
"Claimed", forever.

You adopted me, 
to see that life was not...
meant to be: cruel or hard, 
evil or even maddening and manic. 
It was instead, 
a gift and blessing. 

You made me feel of worth, 
and that I had some value,
to someone... 
other than the darkness.
 
Then you blessed me 
beyond all reason, 
and told me of Him, 
on high... 
You really do love me I know. 

Miss you Mom.
