I was sitting at my desk
Pondering what to say
"Lord, please give me inspiration!"
Earnestly I prayed

With a pad in the left hand
And a pen in the right
I was a man on a mission
Needing a poem for tonight

They say roses a red
And violets they are blue
No--that's a pansy beginning
And that will never do

The sun shining bright in the day
The moon glowing in the night
No--that won't work either
It just doesn't sound right

You can see my dilemma
A poem to construct
Feeling broken and defeated
I wanted to give up

Then it came to me
In a vision like a dream
A picture of the woman
God has prepared specially for me

I chuckled to myself
How could I've not seen
With five simple words
This poem is complete

Dear, will you marry me?

Winter 2001 with my mother

"M"
is for the million things she gave me,
"O"
means only that she's growing old,
"T"
is for the tears she shed to save me,
"H"
is for her heart of purest gold;
"E"
is for her eyes, with love-light shining,
"R"
means right, and right she'll always be,

Put them all together, they spell
"MOTHER"
A word that means the world to me
