Mother

a dedication to her

By Crystal RaePublished 3 years ago 1 min read

A word of power

A word of peace

A word meaning wisdom

A word meaning grace

A word that means nothing

When the tears begin to fall

When the big sister steps in

To make the final call

A word that knows so many words

All so right and seldom wrong

A word able to stop the pain

With one sweet song

A word meaning true love

And giving it your all

Forever reaching out her hand

To catch me before I fall

(Written for my mother Gail Supola in 1995 as a Mother's Day gift from me)
