Inspired by Elizabeth Santo's beautiful words, I thought I'd share a little something I wrote for my Mother last Mother's Day. It's not as good as "Look to the Stars" but of the same theme. Love..in this case, a Mother's. Enjoy

SHE

She is the calm before the storm
She is the break of day
She is the light within my life
That holds the dark at bay

She held me close in Mother's womb
She fed me with her love
She pushed me out into the world
To fly......
A snow white dove..

Superb!  And yes, it is a great mother's love that helps you fly!

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Madame Chipmunk..My Mother holds her "piece" on her wall. I presented it to her last Mother's Day and I can honestly say it is a gift better worth giving than the most costliest stone..Her tears where my own on that day..and it is a memory I will cherish forever and a plague that I will someday bequeth my own daughter...
