A MOTHER'S SONG
June 21, 2014
Listen to my song
my dear sweet child
all your pain will disappear
all your worries and wiles.
Let the melody soothe— your breaking heart
let it fill the cracks and gaps
A temporary glue,
for now and perhaps…
Let the sweetness wash, your soul clean
purer than a new babe’s soul
let the freshness remind you of beginnings
and all the reaping that you will sow.
Each note is softer than love’s tender hands
A promise with every line,
so don’t you forget
That you’ll be ok
Each—
and every time.
