A Mother ...

About five years ago I received a piece of mail from Jackson Jewelers advertising the Hearts on Fire diamond collection. On this mailer was a beautiful diamond pendant, a picture of a mom snuggling with a tiny baby, and a poem. I'm not the type of person who really enjoys poetry, but I liked this. I clipped it from that mailer and have held onto it for years and have it typed and hanging on the wall next to my desk.  I don't know who Julia Summers it, but I love this very short, but meaningful poem.  I hope you enjoy it too.

"A Mother
laughs our laughter,
sheds our tears,
returns our love,
fears our fears.
She lives our joys,
cares our cares,
and all our hopes
and dreams she shares."

Julia Summers-author
