*I sit in my chair quietly observing you
the world rolls by you like a babbling brook.
you are fixing a torn seam in the kids shirt.
I can feel the stregnth of you radiating
in our small family room.
I cannot remember when I had to worry
about the kids you handling everything.
I think how we are always short of money
yet magically you always seem to manage
never complaining.
the news on the tv shows mayhem and violence.
it passes you by unoticed as you keep
us all protected and safe.
for a moment I am filled with humility
seeing the stregnth of your spirit
I see the great woman you are.
the safe harbour I rest in.
the sun glowing at the center
of my small universe.
its no wonder I love you.*
