Amazing Motherhood
I measure my celebration and love
of your life by the depth and length of my grieving, each tear is a memory, each skipped heartbeat is a cherished life lesson, each night sweat is the thought of my life having been led without you, and I thank whomever is responsible for this life that you existed, that you are as you were in me. So if the rose celebrates by wilting, and if the sky celebrates by way of rain, and if the human celebrates by dying, I celebrate your life, as your son, by living. © 2014 Nicholas Emeigh |

Notes: This poem was written on Thursday, February 6, 2014. It's about my amazing mother, and the measure of my love for her by the depth of my grief; my tribute to her by doing what I love and living a good life... As good as I can make it, and as good as she taught me to be.
