A mother's love is unexplainable.
The level of yours, I hope, attainable.
I strive to be,
In all ways, like thee.
...
She looks past herself
As Billy Joel sings
'I want you just the way you are, '
And thinks to herself,
...
Life has many twists and turns,
To this, there is no doubt.
Sometimes Fate steps in to find
What we can't live without.
...
I asked one day of my mother,
'Are you sure you did not birth another? '
For surely, in Julie, I see
A mirror image of me.

The Art Of Being A Mother
A mother's love is unexplainable.
The level of yours, I hope, attainable.
I strive to be,
In all ways, like thee.
To borrow from Browning,
Though she may be frowning,
'How do I love thee?
Let me count the ways.'
I love your poet's heart, your love of art,
Your love of all things beautiful.
Carrying on the tradition,
As your daughter, I will be dutiful.
From home-made Raggedy Anns on our beds,
To matching mirrors painted with tole,
Our home was beautifully filled
From our mother's artful soul.
From Windbergh to Remington,
Van Gogh to Monet,
Our lives were enriched
Most every day!
Feeding our mouths, but also our minds,
Safely kept us from falling behind,
From Trixie Belden to Judy Blume,
Quietly reading in our room.
From numerous trips down the Trace of Natchez,
To a loving heart, with love that matches
The warmth of the warmest flame.
I hope my children see in me the same.
Our house was filled with love and laughter
To be remembered ever after.
The laughs we laughed, the lessons learned,
All the hard work for a dollar earned,
Your Christian duties, never spurned.
To provide solely for another
Is the definition of a Mother.
Clearly I see that now,
No more questions, why or how,
The sacrifices for me, my sister and brother.
I know one day you will leave this earth,
Taking with you a piece of my heart.
I'll strive very hard to be a good Mother,
But Mama, you mastered the art!
Whistel Gal - for her Mama!

Whistle Gal, I can hardly wait for you to post more work, and I cannot tell you how proud I am of you. I know you're my daughter, but your work is SO good, and I want you to keep going until you have a book published! Scarlett
