My Mother, a best friend unknown

Before she left this world

She confided I was her best friend

Little did I know

She was my best friend in many ways

Trouble history  with her as a child

Had washed away

Revealing the love buried  within

Lessons taught that many never learn

From their mothers

She displayed how to love others

Even those who were not loving

In the simplest way

By living her life

Explaining as she went along

Many of what I stand for today

I look back and realized the lessons began

In my childhood

Watching my mother as I grew

She had certain rules for herself

No gossiping about anyone

Go to the source and fuind out

When someone is down

Even if they are the enemy

Go help- them up

Love all people

Even that society does not think of much

Value of the person is not who the world says

But who the person shows you they are

Forgiveness comes and goes

but  when it goes leave it there

The supernatural is Not so supernatural

but part of the natural

many in the world is in fear of

Be proud of who you are

In every aspect

Do not be afraid of standing up for yourself

But when you feel fear

Hide it with courage

By moving through it

Without giving it power in stopping you

All important lessons

That some will never learn

Most important lesson she taught

Even when you do not feel like it

Love the best way you can

My mother left this world

But her lessons remain

In all her children

And the world still sees her through

My siblings and me

Expressions of love she taught us

Little did I know when she left

She was my best friend too.
