My Mother and I

I always want to write something

for Mother’s Day,

some anecdote, or memory,

a bit of wisdom

gleaned through many years

of trial and error,

that was our relationship,

and I remember your smile

and your welcoming ways,

and so many other

kinds of days,

so in the end,

it cannot be expressed

or explained,

but I am thankful again

for you.
