Seems
Yesterday
With wilted
White orchids
We left you there
One last look at the
Cement on top of cold
Metal box, a lonely place
Tears dried, dead tired now
Yesterday is gone, a new day
Dawns, you're warm and strong
Beautiful and vibrant, speaking in
That familiar voice, slow and bold
Your words are few, true, unhurried
Remembering all the finer moments
Ugly tubes and wires forever deleted
Bluish fingertips on sheets reproved
Exonerated, painting nails in vivid red
Smiling in the kitchen, chopping veg
You're cheerful with a mean measure
All within reach, you've got control
A neat garden blooms with lilies
Nothing too showy but sturdy
Amidst this silly pageantry
Your transparency shines
In all climactic times
Your regal bearings
Not once ruffled
Mother dear
Revived
Today
You have told the truth beautifully in this poem. Mother knows everything for child and mother's affection is the great.
This is what Jesus said regarding his own coming death, “I tell you the truth unless a kernel of wheat is planted in the soil and dies, it remains alone. But its death will produce many new kernels- a plentiful harvest of new lives.” John 12: 24
My mom’s life is a seed for all those who knew her. Her life leaves us with this challenge, “Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and encourage with every form of patient instruction.2 Timothy 4: 2
