Bubbling from a well so deep
an open spring flowing into light
you wore a secret in plain sight
for more than anything
love is the name you carried
more than Barbara or Mom
it is your love that we have always felt
from the sweetly rooted hugs
that smiled out of you like a glowing sunrise
even when we were a thousand miles away
and the warmth of your welcoming arms
wrapped so lightly around us now
that we might not feel them in the breeze
or the soft touch of your sacred caress
cupping our faces in the palm of your hand
making us melt like butter in the sun
rays of light that are the love of your heart
you brought us here
with your beacon of grace
to be blessed as your children
so that you could fill us
full of your undying love and hope
showing us acceptance abounding
as you gave us direction
by examples of how we might live
with a happy heart
to embrace life with joy
just as you have always done
our loving sweet mom
who we have always loved
and always will
Rest in Peace Mom
