Poem for mum

You were my river That carried away all my burdens, That’s because you’re pure, mother.

You were my wind That carried away all my dust, That’s because you’re strong, mother.

You were my moon That lightened my darkness, That’s because you’re aware, mother.

Now I can swim in the river Without drowning.

I can fly with the wind Without being carried away.

I can travel the night Without fearing darkness.

Showing gratitude, Offering love, Thanking you Are the least things I can do, Hope that I’ll be that special plant That has mostly flowered with you.
