Reality is more wonderful than I knew
Only some are blessed with more than one
Seeking love and sharing in return
Even as they embrace a new world
Here’s wishing a Happy Mother’s Day to all and sundry.

Great people come and go
Only so far as history seems to show
Or is it that the good are only footnotes
Dust forgotten in the great boat’s wake?
Where a man stands there’s always another
Or maybe even just in the shadows, a mother
Many would not be where they are today
Are you where you thought you’d always stay
Not without the influence and care of a mother’s gentle stare
Written on honor of how my sister’s kids work through the morning on Mother’s Day. She wakes first and when they get up, they shoo her back to her room so they can surprise her with breakfast. They still manage to surprise her, though partly it’s because they’re cooking has gotten better over the years.
Written when I became curious about what Wikipedia would bring up when I typed in ‘May 10.’ It was a surprising read through and I only skimmed a little of what has happened today in the past.
