Sleepless Nights Quiet hush of the night,Baby’s cries, a tender light.Rocking gently, lullabies,Under starlit, sleepy skies.Eyes are heavy, yet you smile,Love makes every hour worthwhile.Tiny hands that clutch so tight,Moments fleeting, pure delight.Midnight feedings, soft and slow,Through the fatigue, love will grow.Every tear and every yawn,Binds you both till break of dawn.Though you’re weary, love’s…
Return to the Mother Church Back to the fold, we come,Steps echo, hearts align,Under the sacred dome,Ancient hymns, divine.Candles flicker, light anew,Faith’s warmth, a tender glow,Voices rise, a hopeful cue,Reverence, we bestow.Past and present, hands entwined,Generations kneel and stand,In this sanctuary, we find,Guidance from a holy land. Meaning This poem celebrates the tradition of Mothering…
Unspoken Words from Daughter I think of you often,Moments we shared, moments we missed.Your laughter echoes in my mind,A melody that never fades.There were things I wanted to say,But the days slipped by.I wish I had told youHow much I admired your strength.I feel your absence in the quiet,When the world slows down.Your advice lingers,Guiding…
Late nights, weary eyes,I watch you sleep,Dreams of a future,In my heart, I keep.No man to call home,Just us two,I promise you love,So deep and true.Struggles, we face them,Together, we stand,I’ll give all I have,With a steady hand.Your laughter, my joy,Your tears, my care,A life built for you,With love everywhere.Plans for tomorrow,Bright as the sun,My…
Silent Goodbye In the still of dawn,Her breath faded,Silent whispers gone,Love unabated.Hands once warm,Now cold and still,Echoes of her charm,Memory fills.Tears gently fall,Grief’s quiet plea,Softly I call,To her, to me.A void left behind,Empty and wide,Comfort we find,In tears we hide.Moments we shared,Now distant dreams,In silence we cared,Or so it seems.Her love, a light,Shining through tears,Guiding…
Hammock Hijinks A hammock swings with gentle sway,I try to sit without delay.But as I plop, it flips me out,With tangled limbs, I flop about.I try again with careful grace,One leg in, a funny face.The hammock rocks, I hold on tight,But soon I’m spinning, what a sight!Friends all laugh, it’s quite a show,As I attempt…
Heart of Home In your arms, I found my endless spring,Where laughter echoes, and joy takes wing.With every smile, you light the darkest night,A guiding star, forever shining bright.Your love, a quilt, warm and tightly sewn,A sanctuary, where I’ve always grown.In your eyes, a promise always true,Home is the heart, and the heart is you….
Mom’s Puzzle Mom’s eyes squint,digits dance in air,Wi-Fi code mystery,Mom forgets where.Weekly ritual,passwords misplaced,searching pockets,memory’s grace.”Was it the cat’s name?””Or your birth year?”Laughter blooms bright,we persevere.Digits tumble,patterns obscure,”Try it again, dear,”Mom reassures.Victory finally,signal secure,Mom’s puzzle solved,loved and sure. Meaning This poem reflects a modern, humorous moment shared between a mother and her child, capturing the…
The Silence I Miss Most In the stillness,your presencewas a soft comfort,a gentle breathof shared silence.Now,this quietis vast,an empty roomwhere your laughterused to echo,where your storieswere once told.I sit,listeningfor your voice,but onlythe silence remains,a reminderof what once was.In this quiet,I findboth peaceand sorrow,missingthe unspoken words,the simple moments,now just memoriesin a worldtoo loud. Meaning This poem…
Lessons by the Lake By the lake, we walked slow,Whispering leaves, gentle flow.Mother’s words, soft and wise,Under blue, open skies.Hold your dreams, never stray,Find the light, find your way.Be kind, strong, love sincere,Face your fears, persevere.By the shore, we would pause,Life’s great lessons, nature’s laws.In her voice, calm and sweet,Strength and peace, I would meet.Now…
