    Mums the Word

     Dearest Mummy you came for a calling
    In my tears at night when I was crying
    Every memory of you inside of me dying
    Determined to remember your smiles

    ~ I'll never forget our little whiles. Together.

    In all the years we sat on fears
    Keeping our secrets in silent tears
    And in all the Times we never spoke,
    I learned to grow up in the silence of love.

    ~ Now I listen to your voice from above.

    I wonder why I can hear your eyes,
    Still keeping secrets about our lives.
    And why is it now that you've come to say
    You've changed my name, Again this day.

    ~ How many more to come this Way...?

    Dearest Mummy I know the Word.
    What I don't understand, is why I've heard.

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
