A mothers love

I wrote this as a gesture of my appreciation for my mother.

I wake up to Dawn, to the feeling of home.

I wake up to her and i'm never alone.

I wake up to family in my blood and my bones.

I wake up to Dawn and to all I've been shown.

I wake up to her through all of the years.

I wake up to happiness through the comfort of tears.

I wake up to a place of no dangers or fears.

I wake up to a vision when all else now clears.

I wake up to a mothers love and all and in between,

I wake up to a simpler time from infancy to teen,

I wake up to a mothers love in all that she has seen,

I wake up to a grateful life in which not all have been.
