What Mom Took
Most often when we think of Mom
We think of what she's given
The softness of a loving touch.
A gentle guide for living;
A nightly tip-toe in a room,
An understanding look.
But sometimes when we think of Mom
We think of what she took
She took a child and taught it how
To live this life with pride
She took those kindergarten tears,
And kept them all inside
She took the hands that longed to hold
Her child and not let go
Used them to push her child along,
The way, to thrive and grow
Took time to do some other things
Like sew, clean and cook,
And never thought to ask for thanks
For all the things she took.
Thanks Mom.
