A Poem to Mother
~ from the love that is
Frances Jeanette Cheezum,
friend AT THE BIJOU and the world
You're the first one we see,
always there to kiss away
the sadness and deliver
the happiness in any way
you can. Our best friend
and mentor even when
we need criticism. If we
let you down you seem to
forgive us unconditionally
Because you're the mother
we want to grow up to be.
