The past is never what it appears to
be
Weighing pros and cons from my
reverie.
The things gone by are a lesson for
life,
Moving on with a future, uncertain of
luck or strife.
As I reflect upon the things, I did in
my past
These reflections are deep
Sometimes showing up for contrast.
Though I try to keep them from coming
forward
It’s a struggle to not think of how
things can have power
This journey I walk is always alone
For this very reason, ensured I have a
home.
Reflecting on things I have not
managed yet to do
Is a reminder that regrets sometimes -
do follow you.
I’ve always wanted to be the best
mother I could be
Not sure if you asked my kids, if they
would agree.
There is never a day when I’ve
forgotten my role
As a mother is forever, all over the
world.
They are older, and no longer holding
onto my skirts
Now, forever I reflect of God’s
blessings with their birth!
