My Mother

By DeAnna Quietwater Noriega

 

They named her Twilight Woman

Slender and graceful

She moved softly when she walked.

Her voice was low and tender, 

gentle and sweet when she sang.

She dressed in deep purple.

She guided them from the frenzy of childhood days

Into the peaceful rest of nightfall.

Like fragrant Jasmin on soft summer nights

She brought comfort soothing their hurts.

filled their hearts with her love.

she made their world seem safe.

She was above all, 

The mother of her five children.
