Mama

Mama

A Poem by T. Edana Talbott




She...

Loved me as soon as she saw me, 
Loves me even when I’m a bother.

She...

Loved me when I was well,
Loves me though I’m a monster.

She...

Loved me when I was small,
Loves me as each day I grow taller.

She...

Loved me as I shined and flourished
Loves me as I try and falter.

She...

Loved me as I fell like a burning star,
Loves me and my tainted heart.

She...

Loved me like no one ever would,
Loves me more than anyone ever could….

She…

Loved me in the midst of life’s endless drama,
Loves me cause she is my Mama.

you're welcome :)
She's the mirror image of you, whoa. :)
A heartwarming piece for your momma. No one can adequately fill her shoes, I'm sure. Or the shoes of anyone's mother for that matter. Fine piece as always, T.
