Momma - Happy Mother's Day

This Mother's Day....I write...in remembrance ....Thanking the Universe for all it's wrought Including this jewel of a woman...it lent us And the marvelous joy her wisdom taught I won't tolerate bickering amongst you ....Physical fighting....there'd better not be As brothers and sisters you will get along ...Under threat...of the....old elm tree Certainly you'll have disagreements .....She'd remind us....from time......to time Whatever the issue - you will...sort it out Somewhere finding....that meeting...of minds Remembering her and church on Sunday mornings .....Me...and my siblings....all tagging along Memories abound...glorious the sound ...Her humming....those old...gospel songs Honoring....and treasuring her memory ....Never once...ever raising...her voice Helping others always a priority... She viewed it...as a matter...of choice This Mother's Day...I write....in remembrance ....Thanking the Universe for all it's wrought Including...this jewel of a woman...it lent us And the miraculous wisdom her kindness taught Author's note: With love and admiration; dedicated to my mother, Rosie Leola Earley
