Mother's Day



on this day - mother's day in north america -
i honour my mother

no more than i usually do
of course

i have a deep respect for my mother
i have deep admiration for my mother

she was difficult
when i needed a "difficult" mother
but didn't know it

she was
easy going
when i needed
easy going

she was 
(and very much still is)
loving -
without condition

i'm deeply grateful for her
and for all that she has done 
(and continues to do)
to make this world a better place

happy mother's day mum!
