To Those Who Made Me a Mother...



photo by Laurel (she did a good job!)

You are the trip I did not take
You are the pearls I could not buy,
You are my blue Italian lake,
You are my piece of foreign sky.

You are my Honolulu moon, 
You are the book I did not write,
You are my heart's unuttered tune, 
You are my candle in the night.

You are the flower beneath the snow,
in my dark sky a bit of blue,
Answering disappointment's blow with..
"I'm happy! I have you!"

    I love you, Mom
