The little girl at the muesumMuseums
A place full of stories
Of art
Not just in the paintings
But in the people too
A little black girl walking hand in hand with her mother
Her eyes lit up in wonder
Wandering what she would discover
While she walks around
Spinning around
And jumping up and down
She doesn't see
That everytime she jumps the light reflecting on her beautiful...

Where's My HomeMother – A Feeling
Mother...
An emotion, a shadow, a voice.
Whether she belongs to someone or not,
whether she’s with you or not,
everyone knows what a mother is.
Ask anyone, and only one answer comes—
Care, love, sacrifice.
She may not be present in her own life,
but she’s supposed to be in ours.
I don’t know what a mother really is,
but I...

Little GirlIt hit me just today
I saw her in a whole new way
Birthday dinner, just her and I
A thought brought a tear to my eye
Has always been "my little girl"
Now she's about to face the world
Seen her grace of a woman before
Now seeing so much more
Just a girl of seventeen
Trying to find life and what it...

Do Not Abandon Me"LOVE, just four letters for a very powerful word." By Poet
Why does life start out from a loving mother,
only to be given to another?
This loving mother cannot care for her,
as a tiny baby makes a stir.
A loving mother will sign papers that will cut like a knife,
making a decision effecting her and a new life.
This...

It’s Not Your FaultI know you already know, it’s not your fault, the life I sought...the bad choices, that was all me. If I could gather all the words the stars have ever heard, still they wouldn't be enough to say what you deserve. You raised four girls on your own, it taught me how to love and...

SamanthaI wonder what I'd be like if you had loved me
As a mother myself, a friend, and spouse
If your love had stretched like branches of a tree
But I still keep your picture at the entrance of my house
She's the Samantha before you had to take life by the handles
The Samantha before you were consumed,...

A Mother - Both Sides Now
mother child
nestled encircled
sings a lullaby shouts rebuke
forever giving endless forgiving
cuddles with soft hands scolds with look of eyes
a candle that gently guides a flint that fires up the child
kisses heals with tender grace hugs forgives all falls from grace
silence teaches more than words songs unsung are yet...

HYACINTH HANDS
Hyacinth Hands
Mother, ego-cracker, birthed an embodiment of freedom plaited with slavery
petunia planter, marjoram with Malay curry and rice, yet scarcity her best performance when hunger a primary protagonist
my leap into Sovereignty depended on unraveling karmic bonds binding us through lifetimes, countless ages, sotto scenarios
Piscean, she scaly presented the toughest tests with...

Happy Mother's Day 2025
Proverbs 1:8 “My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother:”
When I was a child, fresh and new
she gave me her smile, her beautiful smile
and when I was feeling down, so blue
she gave me love that is always in style
when I was little, like a young pup
she gave...

A Letter from My MotherLittle girl, don't you give up now,
Unravel that quizzical brow.
Run like a roar, not with dread,
Stand tall, hold high your head.
Remember the words your mother said:
"O sweet daughter of mine,
Let the whole world see you shine,
Everything will be fine,
O sweet daughter of mine."
Become an alchemist,
See through the mist.
Turn the pain into your...

A Tribute to MomMom, you're the sunshine of my life.
You're a dedicated worker, a wonderful wife,
Someone who doesn't take no mess,
Gives me comfort whenever I'm stressed;
Encourages me to do my best,
And never loves me any less.
How can I repay you for all you've done?
You have provided for your daughter and son.
You prepared me for bed with storybook...

Happy Mother's DayTo the woman who gave me birth,
Who helped me realize my worth.
When it seemed dark everywhere,
You held my hand with deepest care.
The day I started walking, you rejoiced,
Smiling gently, your eyes moist.
You were the one who beamed with pride,
Each time I took a dream-filled stride.
For us, you sacrificed everything,
Left no loose ends in our upbringing.
You...

Picture thisPicture this
You're eight years old, in your bedroom,
playing with your favorite stuffed animals.
But not far from your door, the sounds of raised voices echo-voices that do not sound happy.
You shift your focus back to your toys:
Three different teddy bears.
One is the daddy, one is the mommy, and one is the daughter.
You make the bears do...
