Memory of a Mother. (Happy Mother’s day.)
Memory of a Mother
A Poem by Coyote Poetry
I was raised by a stepmother. I called her mother. She gave love and raised many children. The word Mother should be used in honor of strong and wonderful woman.
Memory of a Mother
(I was raised by my stepmother Sonja.
A beautiful and wonderful lady who died too young.)Names given are earned.Not easy to become.
A beautiful and wonderful lady who died too young.)Names given are earned.Not easy to become.
You were a mother to many.
You try to love all of us.
Errors made in a life haunted your dreams and life.
The good deeds overcame all your mistakes.
Mother and Mama. Sweet words spoken to a woman who loved her children.
You shall be to me.
Mama Sonja for your gift of love.

A heart warming tribute John. I always find it comforting to see when men write about their mothers. A touch of the ‘warm and fuzzies fills my soul. Well penned.

Some days the special people memories make us wish for their voices and faces. I believe it is a good thing to remember them. Maybe they are thinking of us too.
