Trying on Momma's High Heels

happy mother's day

Momma

once young and pretty

now graying at the temples.

Momma

took me on nature hikes

now walks a step slower.

Momma 

butterfly kisses for me

now words of wisdom.

Momma

snuck a kiss with daddy

now holds his hand.

Even as the years pass,

I still see 

the true beauty in you.

Looking past the 

crows feet

and 

the laugh lines

and 

the extra pounds. 

You are beautiful Momma.

I wanna grow up like you.
