A Mother’s love never changes
No matter how life rearranges
While on earth
We must cherish its worth
When she is gone
Yes, life goes on
She just sends her love
From above
She is always with you
You need only look within
Her words, no longer heard
Are speaking to your soul
Completing the circle
Making it whole
The gap closed with her Mother
And her Mother before
It’s a legacy of love
We Mothers pass along
Listen…
You will hear it on the wind
In your children’s voices
In the deepest quiet
In the loudest riot
Crystal clear
Ever near
Listen...
You will hear
I love you
My dear
~~~
Mother

If I were your stars
Would you share the night?
Would you smile at me?
Or wink in delight?
If I fell from the sky
Would you scoop me up or
Send moon beams to show me the way?
If my stars forget how to shine
Would I live in the day?
And learn from the sun
You are my moon
I am your stars
Together we rule the night

Kids playing in the piles of leaves
That parents had just raked that day
The trees proudly share their leaves
On this lovely Autumn day
You can hear the crunching beneath
As the leaves get older and dry
There is sadness as leaves hit the ground
A part of the life cycle in nature
This has been happening since the beginning of time
In solace leaves know they will return in sequence
After winter, spring and summer have gone
They will live on as they meet in passing
A gift from mother earth
A promise that there is a new beginning
Every season day month and year
