poems for mom

simple elegant purpose silent being Love
Honor pulse pleasing seeking German bumble bees
Soaring painted leaves arriving just in time
to create a single moment of bliss never missed
lines arranged into shapes that let you
read my mind but only in this very moment
Golden statues in the palm dream wishing
foretelling and foreshadowing flashbacking
a geninue mother's love
I love you Mom--all that I am
is from your belief---all that you are
is everything to me.

Happy Mother's Day May 11th 2008
Love Your daughter,
Russia Hardy


If I spoke words filled with centeredness
that hub its staility comes from your Love
an extraordinary Love you give and my
Repayment can only be to Live extraordinarily.
through all the paths high and low a single
beautiful force steddies my toes---your love Mommy
Your Love. On this day I write what I feel everyday
a deep gratefulness for you and the knowingness
that your embraces betows. I love you and perhaps
I should write a poem every time I think of you Mommy
but then I would be sending you tomes----so to ensure my letter
my poem can fit in your mailbox--I'll send my Love every second and no postage
will be needed to let you know how
I love you Mommmy---you are my hub
the wheel upon which my life turns
and journeys all these years long.

Love,
Russia Hardy
