2023 Mother's Day Poem
To My Mother

Memories of your luminous smile
and your warm loving embrace
always brings a smile to my face.

Mother I miss your humble joy
when one of your grandchildren
thanked you for a birthday or Christmas toy.

I miss your guiding hands and spirit
as we walked faith's road together
supporting each other in all kinds of weather.

You devoted the last years of your life
to the artistic pursuit of poetry:
which you're still doing in the afterlife.

I miss the way you dried my tears,
and the way you calmed my fears;
I look forward to meeting you in paradise.
