Poetry: On mothers

by Dennis Wolfe

Created on: September 29, 2009

with-in a world of strangers, i have one single home

this world may constantly frown upon me, i have a smile that will always welcome me

there is a heart that never ceases to give

there is a heart that i will always return to, there is a heart that beats in time with mine

my mother.


if i have any concept of mercy, it is because of her kindness

if i have any understanding of patience, it is because of the countless times she has forgiven me


i could spend my entire lifetime attempting to repay my mother

and it would never be enough,


if i ever lacked a reason to believe in a god,

she would be my reason.
