The doors to my heart are open: Mother spoke to me, Breath of God, Because I know the difference As a child and losing God when Mother was taken and my Soul cried to the quarter moon. All the hours pass Through these poems of her, And the words still speak From an altered spirit deep In the forest of my youth, A secret day Mother of six took Me to eat alone, Alone with oceans, And stars, And all the hope a child could bear, Where Mother looked at me And smiled, Her smile contained all that Was good of my childhood. And Mother, Her amazing grace of words Spoke as God, She held me with one arm, One secret morning With oceans, With stars, All the hope a child could bear.

A Private Memory
The doors to my heart are open: Mother spoke to me, Breath of God, Because I know the difference As a child and losing God when Mother was taken and my Soul cried to the quarter moon. All the hours pass Through these poems of her, And the words still speak From an altered spirit deep In the forest of my youth, A secret day Mother of six took Me to eat alone, Alone with oceans, And stars, And all the hope a child could bear, Where Mother looked at me And smiled, Her smile contained all that Was good of my childhood. And Mother, Her amazing grace of words Spoke as God, She held me with one arm, One secret morning With oceans, With stars, All the hope a child could bear.
