Thank You

I learned so much of life from you.
Hours spent in harmony
Bouncing on your knowledge knee,
Kindling a learning passion
Hidden deep inside of me.
Bible stories much encouraged
Taught outside of Sunday school.
Learning by example the
True meaning of the golden rule.
Kindness a priority,
Reasoning a tool,
Ego mostly secondary,
Greed the Mecca for a fool.
People are just people.
Some are good, some are not.
But all are equal in His eyes
No matter how they cast their lot.
You taught me oh, so many things
That get me through each day.
As I reflect on days gone by
I only want to say
Thanks, Mom.
