Love Poem: Mother Is

Mother Is

Mother is one tear away from heaven
Oceans cry, rivers flow to take her home
Pain fills in every crevasse of life 
The arching sky folds fast in blue
Like a woven shawl around humanity
That falls forever covering her children
With love to ease the constant rush
Waves crash, rocks collapse our spirits
 
Mother lifts and holds us in her arms
Above the storm with calm 
Warm thoughts and charm
Wishes flow like milk and honey
Kisses draw us near when mother's here
Every day is Christmas
A shield of colored lights 
Created by her constant love
 
Mother's Day is one day in all eternity
In mother's company time is timeless
