To Be Mother by MwsR

They sometimes influence us, into a reflection of them.

Often, they will fix a hem.

Maker of foods that fill our tummies

Helper, with our things, even when we act like dummies.

A guide to see our inner purpose,

A photographer, of a time that was.

More often than not, our biggest fan

Showing us they believe in us and that we can.

Mothers are great, when great is our mother,

If you were not fortunate enough that is, like the others,

Then we should be the mother that we wish we had,

So we won’t always be sad and feel bad.

Poem

LIFE, LOVE,HOPE by MwsR

Life is too long not to enjoy
Life is too short to not make amends
When does this circle of life have to end?
Love is too great not to share
Love is putting someone else first in your heart
Would it not be right to share it from the start?
Hope is wonderful to have
Hope makes things worth wishing for
Take yours and share it more.

Utmost by MwsR

Important things need important attentions

Scattered seeds need ground for expansions

Commands need an attentive ear

People with conviction to do so, from their peers

Motivation needs commitment

Commitments without hesitation and sentiment.

Life needs living things, to go on

Things of utmost importance, the pawns.

Poem

Nature of Things, by MwsR

The wind sneaks through the trees
There is so much that you can feel but not see.
The sun appears in the same areas each day
But in life often we just assume things will be okay.
Like leaves know that eventually, their place is on earth
Sometimes we need to know our worth.
In life as in nature, there are some absolutes and much we don’t know.
It isn’t our job to have all the answers if we did we would never grow.
Experience life, experience nature, experience it all.
We don’t always have to be certain of how we will land or fall.

I’ve by MwsR

I’ve worked all these last years,

Sometimes with gladness and sometimes, through the tears.

I’ve accomplished things I never really considered accomplishments

Wore pretty much what I felt most comfortable in, without a lot of embellishments.

I’ve visited my back yard with anticipation of the things I have worked to grow

Not much in way of perfection , but I am the only one who seems to know.

I’ve graduated from a local college, trying to better my education

Alas, that changed nothing in my life, except my inner attention.

I’ve walked to get fit, many times before

But it’s nothing like walking your personal life’s floor.

I’ve asked for forgiveness in many ways

Tried even sometimes, to correct my mistakes.

I’ve loved many, yet not many has really loved me

I must be broken somewhere, you see.

I’ve done things I have not been proud that I did

Sometimes, more than not, I took a gambling bid.

I’ve been me more than I can count in my head

Wished to live more times than I wished to be dead.

I’ve entered adulthood, yet still want to be young

Like a newly planted bulb that wants to be sprung.

I’ve wrote many of my feelings for others to read

Sometimes, it amazes me, when I take a look to see.

I’ve been down and disheartened

Bruised and let go of, and sometimes pardoned.

I’ve done, lived, laughed, begged, and cried,

This is my feelings in a poem, I tried.

Poem

A Bunch of If’s
by MwsR

If you can look behind yourself and see no pain
If you can keep a smile even when things stay the same
If you can breathe without complication
Or fix whatever is your problem
If you can see the joy in mundane things
If you can work without any constraints
If you feel empathy for your neighbor
If you can get paid for all your labor
If days come in and they are easy
Then you won’t feel measly
If you can trust without worry
Despite the things that make other people scurry
If tomorrow is awaited with anticipation
Then you can rest easy without hesitation
If your heart is full of peace and love
You will not fall when the push comes to shove
If liars cannot blemish your character,
Then you are special, that’s an important factor
If this poem makes you stop and pause
Then it has served its cause.

Poem

Visit by MwsR

There is a place whether in a dream or in life
That you can imagine yourself being in, and leaving behind all the strife.
That place is a resting place for your soul and mind.
It is one that no one but you can find.
When shadows try to take your sun away
You can revisit this place and for a while stay.

A place for comfort, reflection, and rest
This place is simply the best.
Everyone has their own place like this
There is no challenge there, at least not in this.
Visit this place when you need to
Go there when you can, I plead.

When you get ready to pack
Take only what you need to come back.
Leave behind all the negativity and pain
Because with those things life surely will seem the same.
Revisit if and when you can
There your strength will help you stand.
