Mothers Must Make Mornings Seem Worthwhile
Hear me read
the poem as
an MP3 file.
Watch me read
the poem as
an MP4 file.
Mothers must make mornings seem worthwhile,
Offering a life of love and beauty.
The music in their hearts becomes the song
Humming in their children all life long,
Enduring legacy, exacting duty
Requiring an honest inner smile
Sustained by love - well-tended, willed, and strong.
