mother me

I love that you are here when I wake

that you're the last thought of my day

that all the blessed moments through

are filled with things I do for you

 

there will come a time

when you have places to go

other priorities

your journey

so

 

I love to be needed

wanted

and

loved

 

appreciate every moment

that my god gave me

you

from above

 

you have given me strength

when I was lacking

keep me honest

when fatigue leaves me slacking

 

and just when I think

I cannot go on

that the choices I made

are above me

that im all wrong

 

there comes a giggle

a connected moment

and my heart restores

flies so high

refills

renews

amazingly hasn't run dry

 

and I give

and I give

to all I meet

but getting home with you alone

that's my real treat

 

being your mum

makes me a priority

not last on the list

when you have no where else to be

 

and I love it

will never forget

that you came to me

when on my knees

id had enough

 

you gave me life

purpose constructed

sometimes I forget

think sophie deserves much more

but mother sophies cup is full

if I really look

 

mother me

you are enough

go to your kitchen

and cook

go to your garden

and shape it

put your energies where

they flow freely

and make it

happy

beautiful

freedom

enriching

then your heart

wont feel at the back of the cue
and all this was made
just for you
