TO Mom.....1st poem I wrote for her...I was a teenager
T. S. G.



Centuries of verses and rhymes

flutter thru my mind

on the wing tips of sparrows

rushing to escape a storm.



Your soul flashes in the fabled

blue of your haunting eyes

and gleams in your

easy smile

Even still you are certainly

the most beautiful woman

I know.



If capturing your style in mere words

could be done it would be like

caging a wild bird…

Its’ spirit can not be known

without seeing it soar.



And, if I should happen to cry

I know who will be there

answering in the sky.



Thank you for teaching me how to fly.



I love you,



Christina
