My Mother

by David Lamberti   Jun 11, 2008


My mother, who had three children,
Barbara, Nancy and then David, who is my mother's favorite, had to work on her own to support three children, house, food and clothing, with always a feeling of belonging.

My mother, worked in factories that looked like jail chambers with long bus rides through areas of dark dangers, always there for advice when things in my life
weren't so nice. Disciplined with a glance,
yet always gave a second chance.

My mother, always imposing dignity and grandeur,
sometimes with a little slander, always wanting the best,
taught us never to settle for less. My sisters and I feel
so blessed, having a mother such as you, Mom...

You're truly the best.
