A Mother's Prayer

Give me patience when little hands
tug at me with ceaseless small demands.

Give me gentle words and smiling eyes,
and keep my lips from hasty replies.

Let me not in weariness, confusion, or noise
obscure my vision from life's fleeting joys.

That in years to come, my house with beautiful
memories its rooms may fill.

A belated Mom's Day shout-out to the woman who gave me birth and continues to love and nurture me. And to all the incredible moms in my life, either by blood, marriage, or friendship. I have a mighty tribe of you in my life, and I am thankful.
