For my mother

From the penned to the paper, I want to write
to the most perfect human being on the earth
I want to pour in verses
the best feeling that exists in my soul

From inside my heart, I want to capture
all my endless maternal love
a beautiful poetry I want to write to my Mom
on the infinite paper of my Mother's soul

Mom, you are the most beautiful creator's miracle
You are the tenderness contained in a tear
of love shared by pure souls
You are the wisdom that walks slowly
in the still afternoon of life

Mom, You are the prayer that rises to the Creator
every morning and descends converted
in faith, rain to fecundate the earth

Mom, Time braided your hair with silver threads
manufactured in the looms of the heaven
by industrious and pure hands
of black little angels and matzos little angels
to adorn your face and to crown your virginal head

Mom, You were my shelter, my refuge in the stormy nights
when the darkness and the lightning frightened my soul
I ran to hide in your lap, searching for protection
Today, even in maturity, you continue being my refuge
in the changes of life

Mom, Your blessed, hard-working and good hands
they are the true expression of the kindness
that is distributed in buds, flourishes every day
to share their endless love through the road

Mom, The sound of your voice was my first symphony
and it will be the divine music
that nurtures my soul forever
in my hours of melancholy and sadness

Mom, From you I learned the first letters
in the genesis of my life
through you I learned how to praise God
and be a wiser man

Mom, Although time wrinkles our skin
and the illnesses come
although your walking became slower
as time went on,
Your wisdom grew with the years
and your soul doesn't age

Mom, You will be forever my perfect model
through the roads of life
You will be forever the best mom in the world
The mom of my brothers and sisters
You will be simply, my dear mom...
