Because God could not be everywhere, so he made mothers. Jewish Proverb
Before I was a Spirit You told the moon of me. Before I was formed You chose me out of the pack. Before I was here You were waiting for me. Thats the miracle Of you and I. From the vault of our ancestors On feathers of floating suns, I emerged A witness to mountains long gone Streams of souls soaked in ethereal Carried by sandstorm of emotion Proclaiming love Baked in cathedrals of heaven. From the tickled lips of the poet Comes the unsaid truth of rivers, Broken dreams reconnect When little smile glows And glows and glows Holding the sky up above While stretching the earth below. If I had a rainbow I will wrap it around you If I had a star I will crown you queen of my world. On a playground of fate Festival of dream goes on and on Im astonished That youre still pleased in me If I havent celebrated you It must be because I remained a cub poet. You asked why it is this way Its because love begins with you. Blessed is the path Through which eternal love travels. For the breast For the burp For the bullwhip, But gold in quantum wasnt enough. So remember the asterisk It stands for all the things yet to come. Happy Mothers Day
