Kind caring loving
Darling mother, heart of mine
Safe within her arms
No truer love I will find
She kisses away my pain
forever her Child

Footnotes
There’s something that happens
between mothers and adult children.
No matter how old the child is
when they visit their mother
they always reverting back
to their child state.
Unspoken respect
The adult child
Dutifully places themselves
In a childlike state
Weather, conscious
or unconscious
The bond
Is real
