One Mother's Day
One morning you may wake up
Finding the days slipped right through your noticing,
In a minute, on a day in our life.
Finding the days slipped right through your noticing,
Your kids are growing into the people
They are learning to be, laughing, running, working
They are learning to be, laughing, running, working
Enjoying the memories of all
The things you've forgotten, like the turkey your son won at the dentist!
The things you've forgotten, like the turkey your son won at the dentist!
As they stand and allow you to catch another moment
In a picture you can barely look at, it's so fast, flickering away.

That head I held in the crook of my arm
Washed, fluffed, brushed and wondered what filled up your thoughts, hey, not so long ago.
Where they are now reaches inside where you once were
As you walk along in memory, hoping to help them find peace...find you as you really were,
Washed, fluffed, brushed and wondered what filled up your thoughts, hey, not so long ago.
Where they are now reaches inside where you once were
As you walk along in memory, hoping to help them find peace...find you as you really were,
When they took a hold of their albums to look, they talked about the clothes!
It was so interesting, "I remember that shirt."
It was so interesting, "I remember that shirt."
As they laugh and shake it off
To go on in their own paths. A family expands.
Silly gesture I'm making waving to them, then,
When they are passing through the moments with such desire and joy.
A momma that seeks to suspend us here in the ether,
Over moving into the possible.

On the sand I thought about all the holes we dug
And called them castles!
And called them castles!
All the waves I'd watch, and I had to stop myself from yelling out
Be careful girls in that water, it's an OCEAN.
Following along thinking about their friendship
The love within my children.
They helped me learn to do something that mattered
To find in myself the capacity to love as I always wanted to be loved.
It's Mother's Day
And we are together, I can always treasure that.
For a moment.
