Mothers Poems

Mothers love

Warmer than the summer sun 
Softer than the breeze 
Sweeter than a rose in bloom
My mother’s all of these’s . 

My mother always stood by me 
Throughout my childhood years 
She would always be around me 
If I would shed a tear. 

She would always pick me up 
No matter when I fall
Because the love

Premium MemberOur Mothers Gave Us Their Names

That quiet-ness,
middle of the night,
insomniac,
sleep as it gets bright
toss turn sides & back....
drift to afternoon wake,
stomach rumbles,
to an oven that bakes,
and is humbling.
The fall is a mind's wrap
of how the co-existence
leaves us in scrambles,
Our mother gave us our names,
and euphoria is always the blame.
Scrambling in dirt and even worse,
Limo carries another hearse

A Mothers Love

I will watch over you 
Till my dying day
I'll nurture and cherish 
The times that we play 

The times when I read 
Of adventures to come
As I tuck you in bed 
And you suckle your thumb 

I will watch over you 
As you learn how to live
To become independent 
From the knowledge I give 

The

Premium MemberTwo Pink Lines

Do you remember how excited you would get when you were about to test? Do you remember thinking that maybe if you didn’t look at it till the timer rang, it might be positive. 
Thinking two pink lines meant happiness. Negative after negative, one after the other, month after month. But pain and disappointment still

A black mothers sacrifice

Broken cries diluted the still waters
A mothers pain as she prepares a better life for her daughter
Her bones ached with exhaustion 
Her fractured breathing heavy with guilt 
Buy she knew this was the right decision 

She wraps her baby in a blanket made of love and sacrifice
She hoped these feelings would be carried into her

Gaza's Mothers


In Gaza, the mothers don’t sleep, waiting in darkness, listening to the sky that’s been raining death  -- nothing to inspire a fairy-tale to lull their children to sleep, their ears sharpened to the slightest noise, attuned to the whir of Israeli drones, incessantly circling above.
Every day they are ambushed by grief. 
They sleep

Warriors

Mothers don't let your children
grow up to be soldiers
and march off to battle
without remorse or of course
a thought of regret
to get in the way
boys playing follow the leader
'We're only following orders'
the young may say
yet greed and stupidity
is the name of the game
either for land or in God's name
history has taught nothing
on judging it seems
and trudging

To all the black mothers

Queen of Emeralds

The Queen Of Emeralds.

Thy mothers name is victoria! So full of strength and love!

Thy mothers voice is that of a songbird, spirit is of queen of storms.

Thy mothers net is one of safety, not just for me and my siblings, however strong enough for all children of the sea.

Thy mothers passion is of furious pain
