Mother May I

by ST, May 2026

Rock Rose, a favorite of Mom’s
Mother, may I be one you delight to call your daughter.
May I live a life you would take joy in.
May I step forward and not back,
May my progress not be stolen, but won.
May I pass on the heritage you passed on to me--
May we embrace with sweet memories when once again we meet.

When life seems like a broken egg, something amazing may emerge.
