Headline Poem 5/5/14 -- In Your Eyes

Motherhood (Photo credit Google Image)

I read this interesting headline tonight about motherhood awards in India. It made me think of my own children, and how they see me through their eyes, and what I see in theirs. 

In Your Eyes

In your eyes 

Of sweet blue 

I see my heart 

And truth. Hope lives

Inside your wide

Expressions. 

Your laughter and pain

I stare into them 

and 

practically 

Melt. Away. 

My job is honorable and

dignified. 

I smile because in your eyes

I am mom.

You deserve to feel me 

Wholly,

Faithfully,

Completely. 

In your eyes, 

I am 

Pure Love.
