Sacrifice
When I was five years old my mother left me…
With my grandmother so she could come to the land of opportunity,
And though some would think this was abandonment,
It was really a sacrifice she made to obtain a better life for me.
In those formative years when I was raised by my grandmother,
Who was small in size but larger than life with her personality,
Grandma taught me the meaning of respect and the ways of the Lord,
I called her my mother too out of sheer love and propriety.
And for four years my mother worked her fingers to the bone, ...

♪threnody to the mixed emotions of motherhood♪
“Children are knives, my mother once said. They don’t mean to,
but they cut. And yet we cling to them, don’t we; we clasp them until the
blood flows.” ― Joanne Harris, The Girl with No Shadow
i
in the morn
of my life
was the eve
of God's creation.
one kindred nation
i believe
without strife
thus was born.
ii
all the world
from her womb
cometh forth
with tears of passion.
no feeble ration
or slight mirth
pales...

A Mother's World
Birthers of nations; creators of the universe
World is in your hands; a spare in your purse
We dispersed out of your nourishing wombs
Relying on you to choose how we're groomed
Pruned by the gentleness of your loving touch
Consumed milk of your bosom for our crutch
So much indebtedness is owed to each of you
For your divine job never seems to be through
You have no clue how much you are cherished
Without you we'd be irreparably impoverished
Unpolished gems tossed away like unsung hymns
Void of life like the bikes...
World is in your hands; a spare in your purse
We dispersed out of your nourishing wombs
Relying on you to choose how we're groomed
Pruned by the gentleness of your loving touch
Consumed milk of your bosom for our crutch
So much indebtedness is owed to each of you
For your divine job never seems to be through
You have no clue how much you are cherished
Without you we'd be irreparably impoverished
Unpolished gems tossed away like unsung hymns
Void of life like the bikes...

Mothers Day
A truly Great Mother makes a lifetime of Sacrifices
She’s generous to all, stealing hugs and kisses
Creatively handy, inspiring mentor and thrifty shopper
Her heart radiates heat, warming all that surround her
She is strong like the worlds pillars of Strength
Continuously humble even if wealth is what’s made
Her love is pure, of the true rarest form
Nurturing side to tuck you in then comfort you to keep warm
Shoulders strong enough to carry many heavy burdens
A nurse to ease pain or cure that sudden sickness
Provider to her kids earns her this...

Dear Ol' Motherly Love
when my paranoidal dreams,
all my others get
called into
question.
According to (the) local glossolalia,
you, my buddy, are ill
prepared to the
task.
i will ask the dear lady to run
in your stead.
Matriarchy Now !
(& run run run she done)
Matriarchy Now !
Let the mothers run the place wit all that Motherly Love !
(Cut all that macho Shit ! )
Matriarchy Now ! ...

mothersong
She is clothed with strength and dignity…She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue. She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children arise and call her blessed… Prov. 31:25, 26, 28 (NIV)
I
behold
the pendulum
on which swing
the complexities
of our souls
champion
of in-vitro days
God lending us
His image
in the secret chambers
of her sanctum
II
post-speculum
dangled she us
helpless hopeful blooms
tethered ...

you deserve this day
Hey gorgeous, wake up its a beautiful day. God woke you up, so thank him, because some people went to sleep and stayed. Its time to start your day don't think about yesterday that is the past today is the future its time to move forward. From all the drama in the world with the crime, abortion, unnecessary murders, because people holding grudges that they can't let go. The devil has his foot on the necks of folks who carry guns just to get in the prison system with a number or be just another statistic. Don't be scared hold your babies tight ask God guide them, because you HAve to be careful...

sister
You have suffered many intractable rudiments of life raising us your children.
Six adorable seeds of blessing from God.
Yet you held your head up, opened your heart to us
and embraced each moment collectively spent with a note of triumph.
With unwavering faith, you knew there were better days ahead.
The person we are today is a product of our memories.
We are grateful for your kindness and unconditional love.
Like the halo of the angel
You always stood an inch behind us.
In our moments of terror, you held and caressed away our fears....
Six adorable seeds of blessing from God.
Yet you held your head up, opened your heart to us
and embraced each moment collectively spent with a note of triumph.
With unwavering faith, you knew there were better days ahead.
The person we are today is a product of our memories.
We are grateful for your kindness and unconditional love.
Like the halo of the angel
You always stood an inch behind us.
In our moments of terror, you held and caressed away our fears....

Mothers Daze
Abandonment
Mother of abuse
Mother of discipline
Showing no love
Mother of the rod
A child not spared
This is not a day for you
Why
are
you
celebrating?

when hunger

earth’s little
