Poem .... MOM
This is a poem I wrote a while back for my mother.
Mom
I am having a really hard time,
Putting into words, what mom means to me.
Where do you start?
With something like this?
How do you put on paper,
The feelings you have for your mother?
I do not think it is truly possible,
To reach that deep into our hearts.
Mothers live so deep within us,
You cannot touch them with words.
Can you really explain to someone else,
How she helped you through your toughest times?
Can someone also feel from words alone,
The Mark a mother leaves on her children?
I do not think you can.
Perhaps it is easiest just to say,
Thank you Mom,
Thank you for our lives,
And the influence you have left with us.
As we go our ways,
You are always there.
Deep inside,
Where words alone cannot reach.
