TRUTH: YOU BECOME YOUR MOTHER, OR YOU DON'T.
73 years old
and her constant is change
she's seen and done it all
and her perserverance stays the same
with grand-children of her own
she knows the long and lonely road
that leads to love and
that teaches you to let go.
As days count down
till she's in that hospital gown
a mother she will be
till her very last breath
and everybody will realize
the truth of a mother
in the perspective of their eyes
and one day they'll see
they all just want to
Rest
In
PEACE
with a dose of MOTHERS MEDICINE
to
Help
Get
Some
Sleep.
Nice Ode
