VILLANELLE FOR MOTHER'S DAY

VILLANELLE FOR MOTHER'S DAY

She grounds me to the earth like roots in soil
The constant love and faithfulness all time
She gives her right arm, free me from dien toil.

A 'present parent' , does not mean to spoil
But does whatever in my youthful prime
She grounds me to the earth like roots in soil.

Calms after a storm, wraps her tears in foil 
Nor does she frown until the last bell's chime
She gives her right arm, free me from dien toil.

A harried life, having to toil and moil 
And fashions me like ' Filipina - hime '
She grounds me to the earth like roots in soil.

She slips out of tightest, tumultuous broil
Raises me with age, free from rage and crime 
She gives her right arm, free me from dien toil.

Bravest mom, untangles life's mortal coil
And teaches me that life don't always rhyme 
She grounds me to the earth like roots in soil 
She gives her right arm, free me from dien toil. 

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL MOTHERS ON COSMOFUNNEL FAMILY.

Our Dear Leah,

From the time by her I had my birth
She has ground me in the soil's Earth
She nurtures me with her purest love
My Mother sent by God above

All our love,
Linda and Larry xxx
