Mother

Laurie Edberg 1966 (Sechelt)

Mother

Roses for mother,
Lillies too,
Mothers love flowers,
The beauty is resemblant of her.

Grace and beauty,
She sits on  her thrown,
Applying her makeup,
Which was a needless fascade.

As she gracefully glides,
As she shops with consideration,
Feeding her family,
As she prepares with love.

She deserves the flowers that nature,
Birthed for her.
