February 2017

Your mother is always with you.

She´s the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street.

She ´s the smell of certain foods you remember,

flowers you  pick,

the fragrance of life itself.

She´s the cool hand on your brow when you ´re not feeling well.

She´s your breath in the air on a cold winter´s day.

She is the sound of the rain that lulls you to sleep.

Your mother lives inside your laughter.

she ´s the place you came from,

your first home,

and she´s the map you follow with every step you take.

She is your first love,

your first friend,

even your first enemy,

but nothing on earth can separate you

not time,

not space,

not even death.
