Jenna

The concept of blood.
It means nothing to me.
You are a flood
Of motherhood and intimacy.
You are my gleaming ray
Of strength and caring.
And even when I'm away,
I hear your love blaring.
I haven't played the perfect part,
I'm sure you've come to know.
Nonetheless I see your gorgeous heart.
It will never cease to glow.
Having a woman parent me
Is relatively new.
I love you for it, Jenna.
I really, truly do.
You know I care for you.
I know you care for me as well.
I can taste it on my tongue.
One of the few ways I can tell.
Your eyes shine
With glittering harmony.
I seek peace in your voice.
And comfort in your company.
So...
Either my love for you is unreasonably vast, or
You're simply a better mother
Than I could ever ask for.
