Hear me
read
the poem as
an MP3 file.
Watch me
read
the poem as
an MP4 file.
Mothers are what make the boo-boos better,
Overcoming crises with a kiss.
There is no greater burden or delight,
Having as one's role to make things right,
Even when one may find much amiss.
Remember that such loving lasts forever,
Singing through the silence of each night.
