I am sensitive to others’ journeys. The word Mother creates different experiences for each individual. This is for everyone who has a mother. For all of us. As we are each joined through one word.
The Union of Word
Mother
The sacred word
The echoed sound
Varied in frequency
Same in source
Vibrates through the universe
Each pronouncement distinct and filled
Each carrying a singular story
Shared by all
The connecting link
The threshold to breath
Travelers though the same land
Of hills and valleys
Of unquenched thirst
Stories wrapped
In colors of blue
Opened in turn
With sound exact
All equal, all one
Seen through eyes of the heart
Shared through lips and tongue
Everything balanced
No key to unlock the reason or why
The hand that was held
Or missing or lost
Engraved you
Etched perfect beauty
Children of song
All gathered
With whispers sweet
Or silent empty
Hand in hand
We are together
The tears
Same as smile
In union loved
In union embraced
In union of the one
Echoed sound
Adored

Beautiful poem my lovely friend.
Loved these words
The hand that was held
Or missing or lost
Engraved you
Etched perfect beauty
Children of song
We have Mother’s Day in March here, I can never really enjoy it. I think it’s seeing the cards and gifts everywhere n the commercial build up, it always makes me sad. I miss my mom every day. It has been good for me today reading all the mom stuff but not having the sensory build up before hand. It actually been quite special and healing for me.
Thank you for your poem.
Love you loads.
Lees. xxx 🙂 ❤
That was my favorite part, too. 🙂 🙂 🙂 We are so alike! I don’t care for the commercial build up either.
I’m glad that this has been good for you, minus the sensory build up. Thank you for your words.

Thank you; you are so sweet. 🙂 Sam
We can be loved as a child and understand our mothers and love them in spite of and for all they do. I still find it strange to celebrate my own and be one simultaneously. It’s fleeting, this status. Know that with those thoughts, I found this deeply touching. xoxo
Your thoughts are profound, at times. Yes, I know what you mean. 🙂 Hugs and love, Sam
Very nice, Sam! Bravo!
Thank you, George. 🙂
