GIFTS
Lazy childhood
summer play,
Golden dreams, fun
filled days.
Sisters, brothers,
family ties.
Cheerful greetings, fond
good byes.
Words of comfort,
manners, strength.
I could go on at
any length.
The chance to try -
to fail or soar.
Encouragement to try
once more.
Support when I
felt need of
some. Discipline.
And love.
Cherished, these,
and many others.
Gifts, presented me
by Mother.

Very nice! Should be on a greeting card!
Wow, mom! I am very impressed with your poems. I can write a mean poem, too. I must have gotten that talent from you. I didn't know you wrote??
I was always to shy to share my poems. But that is about it, tho -- I don't have many.
