Each Of Their Offspring Poem by Michael Walkerjohn

Mourning
through the
thoughts of one's
mother and her love
bring forth sets of tears
those of joy through life's
battles, and those through
life's trials, those few and far
between tears of fear … for our
mother's do something which
makes naught of all things …
these nothings that Moms
bring to the least of those
‘bad' things, which abound
within and around the family
and childhood; in the struggles
to up-bring … each of their offspring.
