Celebrate You…Mother

About this time every in May, we celebrate moms on Mother’s Day.

This year has even more meaning you see because throughout this time a lot has happened to me.

My world turned upside down when I became ill but I found strength through mom’s determination and will.

She loves and encourages me and she feels my pain and she trusts the Lord that I will walk again.

Lord; remind me daily to show her love and please encourage her from up above.

Mom, thank you for loving me in your own special way, and I celebrate you on this Mother’s Day!!



By Horace Williams Jr.
I wrote this 3 years ago for my mom Mother Day.  She always prefers my poems to a greeting card!
I guess It's really over, this life we made.
It singed and scoured the clay in our hearts, though it was poorly molded. Still, this is not how I thought we'd fade.
Still our life was wrongly folded.
Foolishly smiling in the midst of all the pain, I guess with me there's nothing to gain.
This life has fallen, shattered on the floor, I just wish I didn't care anymore.
I guess our love was just a pottery class failure from the very start.
The proof is in my now broken heart.
To make love is a wonderful thing.
An irreplaceable feeling of sheer ecstasy.
A man and a woman sharing their very souls.
An emotionally charged volcano with an eruption of love.
Literally a bonding of mind, body, and soul.
And, quite simply, emotions in motion.
Plate was full with delightful dishes
Served by the lovable hands
Kept in front of one who
Couldn't enjoy the meal so delicious.
Burp was heard somewhere nearby
every eyes followed the burp
Saw a hungry man eating leftovers
Mouthful with teasing appetite and
tears burping in his contented eyes!

Lovers are winners
The marathon is over
Two hearts beat racing

i once loved darkness
welcomed its presence
and reveled in the black abyss
i was afraid of the light
for it would reveal the evil
Lurking around me;
   inside of me
It was easy to take comfort in my ignorance
and accept my blissful state

Now I hate it.
