It may be a truism to surmise
That as we get older
We get wiser.
It may also be equally as true
That as we get older
We simply run out of
Stupid things to do.
A total self committment
Not fame or fortune
She gave herself completely
In throught, in word, in deed
She never stopped to wonder
On blessings she might earn
But tried instead to teach me
And prayed that I might learn
And now I'm older, and wiser
I understand much more
And look with admiration
Her presence I adore
Mother gave me everything
A debt I cannot repay
So help God to show her
My love in every way
Form:
Once the sun rises
it never goes back to the east
Once the water flows into the sea
it never goes back to the river
Yesterday becomes today
and today leads to tomorrow
Thus our valuable time passes away
from this busy life....
These are all days and nights
silently come one after another
to make us older and older
These are the sun and the moon
to make yesterday, today, and tomorrow
and to make us older and wiser.
First I was me,
Selfish as can be,
Wanting everything from A to Z
And wanting it all for me.
Then I became we,
A part of an us.
I learned to share, give and take
I learned how to trust.
Next I was you,
Believe me its true.
I would rather give than receive,
It was you I wanted to please.
Now I am them,
A family man.
Giving my children,
All that I can.
If you look real close,
It is easy to see,
I am older and wiser,
And no longer a me.
If I am to write a poem on love,
then I straight away think of you.
Older and wiser, offering unconditional
open hearted, opened armed embrace.
A love that knows what it is like
to be born into a war zone.
A love to step in when others stepped out.
I would not be here now without you.
So on your birthday here's my love.
Returned in this little package.
I send an enormous hug across the world.
Big sister, big friend, big part of my life.
