She, she walks with more beauty amongst her petite shoulders that even Lord Byron would quickly run out of words
She is a heroine, who wears her invisible cape of strength proudly knowing that ,while she may never get a key to the city, she will always have a key to your heart
She has two titanium hands of velvet that will cradle you so softly on your worst day while still laying down the cold hard law
She is the sun, forever chasing the moon, casting her beautifully bright rays of hope everywhere that was once plagued by darkness
She is the sweet smell of morning dew that lets you know that yesterday has come and gone, but also that you have been given the gift of another day
She is the innocent puppy that lays sloppy kisses among your cheeks while licking away the tears of sorrow that have fallen
She is an ocean, who’s rocky waves and consuming depths are forever full of love, pushing and pulling, powerful yet vulnerable, always coming back to the accepting shoreline that awaits her
She is the trunk of the family tree. Keeping everyone within her grasp, and no matter how old she may be, her branches will always remain open for more
She is a warrior, whom has fought in many battles using her strength and intelligence to swiftly bring justice to her enemies. And although she may not have won all of her battles, she will always continue to win the war of love.
But she is a healer, that knows way too many “old wives tales” but she’ll never admit it. And even though sometimes you may get annoyed with each other, she’ll always be that one person whom you want to hold you when you’re sick, who can stitch back the open wounds of your heart with a simple “I Love You”
She has the bruised and scarred hands of a worker that labors and slaves until the last bit of sunlight has turned to stardust just to make sure that you have everything. Because she would give you the shirt off of her back if it would fit
She is insanely intelligent
Lovingly sarcastic
A chef and a maid
Creative and complicated
Ambitious and stubborn
The keeper of peace
An amazing hug giver and an even better hug receiver
She is that one phone call you needed
She, is all knowing while still learning as she goes
She, is beautiful.
Mother.
