Thy Name Is Mother

“Brighten the corner where you are,” Thy name is “Mother,” A lady, an obsession with beauty, As you went about your duties. Today I feel your presence As I in my easy chair, Remember how you loved to decorate, And you did have such a flair. Your presence loves House and Garden TV, As together we watch a parade of homes, And I as my mother’s daughter Have absorbed your love, thus not alone.
