A Mother’s Day poem from an adult child about the difficulty of expressing their love:
Your love is like the
Arizona sun:
Always
there, no matter what I do.
Bathed in
light, I feel my love for you,
But words
are gone before I have begun.
I don't
know why I find it hard to say
The things
that rest so deeply in my heart.
It seems
almost impossible to start,
As though
they're too ungainly to display.
I cherish
you and what you feel for me.
I'm lucky
that I have you for a mom.
I love you
with a love that's sweet and calm,
And vast,
like some unending inner sea.
You're the
one I'm with when I'm alone;
You're the
place within my heart that's home.
