to all mothers, I salute!
the 24/7, the enriching tedium!
to the baby’s smile that magically
allows us to change yet another dirty diaper!
to another decision on what to make for dinner
that everyone will eat, to another battle over
who does the dishes, to another long sigh
over yet another sibling fight,
to motherhood!
to the day they launch with honors,
to the day they take vacation with friends,
to the day they call from far away lands
to thank their mothers who
today sit at a sunny table in May
drinking mimosas and reflecting
on the loveliness of being a
mother.
