    Blue Star Mom

    Above the mantle, hangs her pride,A single star, in blue, it bides.Her heart a ship on stormy seas,Her thoughts as restless as the breeze.Each morning starts with hopeful eyes,Each nightfall hears her quiet sighs.Letters read a hundred times,In every line, her heart entwines.Far across a vast expanse,Her child wears courage as their stance.Under foreign skies…

    Mother of an Addict

    In shadows deep, her worries tread,Each night unfolds with silent dread.Her heart a map of scars and fights,Her hope a flicker in the nights.She holds the phone, a lifeline thrown,Each ring a pulse, a heavy stone.In every call, a breath is caught,A prayer whispered, never taught.Her eyes, two wells of quiet tears,Her strength tested through…

    Two Mothers

    In morning’s light, one tends the soil,Her hands shape earth, a tender toil.Another stirs the pot at dawn,Her song floats through, a gentle fawn.Both weave the threads of care and love,Guided by the stars above.One plants a seed, the other stirs,Each life they touch, quietly purrs.Fields that bloom ‘neath watchful eyes,Kitchens warm with sweet surprise.Mother…

    A Mother’s Journey

    In early dawn, she tends her nest,Soft hums escape, her love expressed.Each step she takes, a silent test.Her hands, though worn, weave comfort best,Through winding paths, she does not rest.In early dawn, she tends her nest.With watchful eyes at night’s request,She guards the dreams where young ones nest.Each step she takes, a silent test.The seasons…
