:Janet, My Love"

 

Your heart,

As deep as the ocean

Swelling, shifting,

with hidden secrets and mysteries.

 

Guarding well the pain and hurt,

The love,

a flash of lightning

from the soul, to the window

of your eyes.

 

Like a blossom, on a strong stem

you sway with the breeze,

casting a soft shadow,

that delights my sight.

 

I bow to your gentleness,

smile at your mild reprimands,

respect our purpose,

and love you greatly.

 

Written with much love

on Mother’s Day for you.
