Endlessly Little

This goes to my mother. Happy Mother's day!

I wonder if you see
The years that already left the door
And just how I ache to be free
To seize what the world has in store
When you still watch my feet,
And pick up what I drop
When you start what I quit
And flip what I flop
Not a thing I do
Would be spared from your touch
I guess I never really grew
Since you held me that much
But if keeping me closer
Will make you live longer
Then I ask you to hold me tighter

Economy in words to say beautiful things about life and your mother. Like you I wrote of my mother this week. We seem to be a sensitive bunch with words of love and praise for our mothers on this day.Thank you for sharing the beautiful thoughts of your mother.
