I am a writer. My passion is poetry. I feel words connect people together and help us to understand the feelings we share.

Mother…
I can not imagine
a day without you.

You have been with me
since before I could talk
teaching me right from wrong
raising me to be the person
I am today.

You encourage me
to follow my dreams
treating me
like your best friend.

I look forward
to each moment we share
I am proud
to have you as my Mother.

Mother and I
