Mother's Place Poem by AHO Speaks

M wonderful Mother never had her day
She wed my father and became a slave.
It was not my father's fault for it was so
So many fathers, who really didn't know.

Mother became the queen of precious seven
Also blest when she got to heaven.
She was not given wiishes but an eternity of desires
The kind to provide, heat and light, without fire.

For each one of her children and she was awarded seven
One day for every day she will spend in heaven.
She can make her choices from a selection of many
Not just the expensive but to choose the shiny penny.

What she was denied on earth regardless of reason
She is entitled to select and use, for one whole season.
Her sacrifices to be rewarded with a catalogue of chocies
Wonderful warm and strong things; with lyrical voices.

Her name to appear on the heavenly scroll
Another menu of selection from the eternal roll.
So Ma you have what you so richly deserve
Save me a place at your dinner table; and I will serve.
Love Surrounds
