Mama

Dedicated to her with love:

Cradled warmth. Hands part callous.
Love plays on her soul like an unending ballad.
Absolute balance, found joy in her silence.
Grounded despite the troubled times surmounting.
Still smiling amongst the burden heavy on her backbone.
Spine intact, still holding down the black home.
Prone to be alone in her walk.
But a Queen in the kingdom, many crowns on her heart.
Garments of the righteous.
Diamonds in her footsteps. 
Examined the light, knew the dark was the true test.
With every good breath, I honor ya.
Lay my life down, I'll go to war for ya.
And the story ain't complete without your gentle touch.
Innocence shines like a thousand splendid suns.
Radiant without condition.
Delicate but still strong to go on, ignite the mission.

I Love You
