A Mother Poem by THEODORE MOSLEY

Created with warmth and compassion she demonstrates the love that eyes endure in storms.

She penetrates the stone walls of hearts that behold their own direction of truth.

Anchored in tears of pain she endures imitation of life to fulfill their life.

Without conscience of agonizing decisions she derails her plans for her seeds to cultivate.

Taking the abuse for your education she complies with time to usher in your knowledge of revelation.

Praying without ceasing she completes the task of protecting your misguided ways.

Standing on the mountain of her oppressors she develops your mind with her tactical ways.

Navigating the concrete jungle for your safety she persuades broken dreams to examine themselves.

The democracies of her finances were the dreams of hope deferred to institutional learning.

She inspired dreams within your intelligence for the world to behold with hands of love.

Having to narrate your life with tools of wisdom and perpetual confidence she molded your future.

Demonstrating her power with her silence she calms the storms of life with words of love.

Standing strong and proud with the broken chains of her ancestors she is a mother of freedom.
