Mothers Are What Make the Boo-Boos Better

May 2, 2016

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is motherhood, in honor of Mother’s Day, which falls on May 8.

Today’s poem is about a mother’s timeless role.

I welcome comments on my poems at http://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.

Yours,

Nick Gordon

Mothers are what make the boo-boos better,
Overcoming crises with a kiss.
There is no greater burden or delight,
Having as one’s role to make things right,
Even when one may find much amiss.
Remember that such loving lasts forever,
Singing through the silence of each night.
