A Mother's Love Determines How A mother's love determines how We love ourselves and others. There is no sky we'll ever see Not lit by that first love. Stripped of love, the universe Would drive us mad with pain; But we are born into a world That greets our cries with joy. How much I owe you for the kiss That told me who I was! The greatest gift--a love of life-- Lay laughing in your eyes. Because of you my world still has The soft grace of your smile; And every wind of fortune bears The scent of your caress.

From the Distance of Our Separation From the distance of our separation I see the whole of which I was a part; I see the way my temper tore your heart, And then the love beneath the laceration. I see the landscape shaping our relation: Your fear that I might choose with little art, My anger at the dreams you would impart, The ancient paths that lead to confrontation. But knowledge needn't linger in regret, Nor wait upon some wind to clear its sky. We are none the worse for what is gone. The moments that I never will forget Are those whose careless grace must make me cry, Safe within a heart forever won.
