Mom

Warm smile holds the sky,
endless summers in her eyes,
gifts of roots and wings.

๐Ÿ’• Happy Mother’s Day to all ๐Ÿ’•

Mom

Mother’s prayers, helps sorrows fall,
paints a bright path where dreams stand tall,
breaks barriers, unfastens chains,
warm kisses clears away deep pain.

Sweet intentions soon interweave,
soft lullabies helps hearts believe,
forms concrete goals wrapped in pure glee,
secures joy so bliss could fly free.

Mother’s love song oozes with peace,
protective force cause wants to cease,
her children’s smile always comes first,
will sacrifice to cure their thirst.

Smooth serene hum carries sheer love,
sugary hugs fit like a glove,
solid armor shields from cold storms,
sixth sense extends past any norm.

Mother’s message is always pure,
connection set to reassure,
guides towards positive outcomes,
cleans up the mess, picks up the crumbs.

Lyrical prayer sings sun shine,
a mother’s breath feels so divine,
infinite link, forever bound,
endless care planted so profound.

Happy Mother’s Day ! Love and blessings to all! Enjoy!!! ๐Ÿ’•

Cord

With your first breath,
you made me proud,
clutched at my heart,
to make it pound
.

You suckled your thumb,
I touched your ears.
Grateful above,
brought your soul here.

A toothless smile,
you wore all day.
Our world an isle,
embraced we swayed.

While teaching you,
I taught myself.
As candles blew,
strong bonds excelled.

We both grew up,
reflective eyes.
We conquered humps,
but always tried.

Still to this day,
pride makes me cry,
release delays,
so you can fly
.

Cion Mamรก

La luz de Carmen,
refleja sobre mi.
Acaricia mi cara,
haciรฉndome dormir,
Ilumina mis sueรฑos,
sin principio ni fin.
Limpia mis fracturas,
suspiran mi sentir.

La luz de Carmen,
inspira mi reir.
Cose mi sonrisa,
ayuda sin decir.
Fuerza de cemento,
un corazรณn de miel.
Carga sentimientos,
muy puro y siempre fiel.

Cion Mama (English)

The light of Carmen,
reflects upon me
caressing my face,
putting me to sleep
Brightens my dreams,
with no beginning or end.
Cleans up my fractures
while sighing my feeling.

The light of Carmen,
inspire my laugh
Sew my smile
while quietly helping.
It cements my strength,
with a heart made of honey
carries feelings,
very pure and always faithful.

Today is my motherโ€™s birthday. Her given name is Luz del Carmen though she goes by Carmen. Spanish is her primary language so as a tribute to her I decided to try posting in spanish for the day. The flow and structure for the english translation may be a bit off but hopefully you can get the gist of it. Happy Birthday! Felicidades Mami!๐Ÿ’•
