Happy Mothers Day

about mothers

i did not write this under duress
i have known many mothers
my mother, aunts, mothers of friends,
all of them unique
some of them strange, odd,
but all of them colorful and in some ways,
endearing
if you are from the south,
you will understand what i am about to say....
mothers make the most noise.
they secretly rule the lives of everyone..
some through kindness, humility, and giving
others through Viking-like dominance!
Matrons of the clan wielding the sword of the tongue!!
either way, what we do without our crazy, wonderful, mothers?
Happy Mothers Day!
