If
by Estelle Jackson

If my love were enough...
You would rise with each new dawn
And fly on soundless wings;
Soar high above the earth
Released from Time and Things.

If my love were enough...
We could catch a wave and travel;
Riding on currents, mum and daughter -
To see the beauty and splendour

Do You Know
by Jeffrey Pipes Guice

Do you know how much I love you
Even though we live apart...
Do you know how much I miss you
And always have right from the start...

I’m sorry your Mom and I used to argue...
But there’s one thing on which we both agree...
We truly love you with all our hearts...
You mean the world to her and me...

The Impossible
by Estelle Jackson

It is very difficult;
Verging on impossible.
But that which seems impossible
Must be made possible.
I must do it
For us both.
A time of change;
A time of growth.
Take all that I have
And all that I am.

Honey
by Arielle Greenberg

I am three months out and six to go,
stuffing my plastic Superball body with the salt
& twang of crackers die-cut into the shapes of fish.
God forsakes me when I forsake him
but mostly he's much kinder, as is his duty:
I am radiant, people tell me, and have no hives,
except the swarm of gold bombs biting its way
into my sticky hollow. And I don't mean sex.
I am just a menagerie for bright orange creatures.
Even my dreams are godless (and full

To All The Mother’s Around The World...
by Jeffrey Pipes Guice

You wake me with a hug...
As the sun begins to rise...
You ask if I slept well...
Wipe the sleep from my eyes...

You dress me for school...
In all my favorite clothes...
You tell me I look just perfect...
As only a loving mother knows...

A Timeless Birth
by George Payne

A Timeless Birth

I believe that you
existed in me
before this womb, full
of silk fiber hair
and enrobed in fluids
of blood orange and
honey; there is an
unbreakable feel

A Child Is a Magical Thing
by Richard Randolph

A child is a magical thing.
It breathes air, eats food, and drinks water.
It smiles and knows what it is to be happy.
It cries and knows what it is to be sad.
It enjoys seeing and touching new things,
listening to music, dancing, exploring,
and asking lots of questions.
It’s very curious about the world,
and about what’s right and wrong.
It also loves being touched, and held,

Mama
by Priscah mutswenje

In the tapestry of life, a beacon so bright,
A mother's love, an eternal light.
Oh, gentle guardian of the midnight moon,
In your embrace, a timeless tune.

In the cradle of your arms, we find solace,
A sanctuary where love has no malice.
With tender whispers, you mend each scar,
A healer, a guide, our North Star.

Run
by Kayla Mumford

I love you big
I built a whole world for you
I chose people
made them audition just to
be in your life
I paved paths and roads so you’d
know exactly where to go
So you’d come home everyday
To me
So you would like the same people
