Mother Love

Wings spread,

open and wide,

wrap around me,

in an embrace.

Right there,

in your arms,

made of love,

pure and gentle,

safety finds me –

gives me a home.

Here I cry,

tears of joy,

of intens hope,

and undying grief.

A mother’s love,

difficult to catch,

in one simple phrase,

is only understood,

deep in the heart,

of all I can ever feel,

and every emotion,

I ever hope to touch,

in this lifetime!
