For My Mother (by Randyjw; April 3, 2016)
The beautiful piece of your heart and life
which you opened to another
touches them in ways in which
it always seems to matter
The wellspring of my eyes is turned
in seeing that you bother
Consider what I’ve seen and learned
The yearnings of a mother
Your days of toil upon the floor
to clear each path before
the soil from our wayward path
and what will lie in store
The dreams you set into our mind
we never leave behind
and when in time we reach the line
and take our turn in kind
Each small and heartfelt victory
the labors of your youth
Through days of untold hardships
you rebirth our lives anew.
