The greatest gift I ever received by far is you
Not was, but Is
The proudest thing I’ve ever been is your Mom
“Is” is the key word again
The heartstrings hum louder today with the vibration of distance
as I prepare myself to witness the outside world
and the public celebration of Mother’s Day around me
Though mine is inward and quiet
Still I celebrate being a Mother
Still I am forever one, forever yours
No matter the distance
Still I celebrate
All the wonders of you
And all the joy you continue to fill my heart with
Being your Mother has been
and continues to be, a privilege
You are,
have always been,
and continue to Be
the greatest gift in my life
Always your presence remains
Falling gently on me like stardust
Forever brightening my heart within
Still
You are,
have always been,
and continue to Be
a miraculous ever-present force
Mother’s Day for me will always Be
loving and embracing all the wonders of You
Still
