Mother

Mother

A Poem by Itumeleng Molokomme
"

I wrote this just yesterday for mother's day. it celebrates the people that birthed the universe

"

Your beauty is striking
From your hair follicles down to your toe nails
So marvelous I know not where to begin
Should I tell you of your eyes
How they've seen tragedy but still remain so bright
Or how the wrinkles that surround them remind me of ocean waves gently soaking the shoreline
I'd rather tell you about the ones on your mouth
Those that define your angelic smile, your laughter that echoes through my veins
Your body embodies everything majestic
Serenity resides in your soul
In your womb you carry love and hope
Your shoulders remind me of weighing scales.
You carry the burdens of the world but never break
You bring about balance and justice
You are the mother of generations
Past, present and still to come
