“A Poem for My Mom” by Teyuna T. Darris


“A Poem for My Mom”
I’m thankful to the God
Who gave me to my mom.
And, touched her heart to give me hugs,
And, kiss my forehead and my thumbs.

Each day, she greets me with a smile,
And speaks kind words deep from her heart and mind.
Then, she sums up all her desire for me:
She says, “You have a great day, and you come back to me”.
My mom, she listens with her heart from deep inside.
Then, shares her golden wisdoms to store inside my mind.

I’m thankful
I’m so thankful
For the one who’s called “My mom”.
And, for everything she is, and does
And gives to me— and her love.
My mother is Diana Darris.❤️

“Acquainted with the Night” by Robert Frost (1874–1963)


 

I have been one acquainted with the night. 
I have walked out in rain—and back in rain. 
I have outwalked the furthest city light. 

I have looked down the saddest city lane. 
I have passed by the watchman on his beat 
And dropped my eyes, unwilling to explain. 

I have stood still and stopped the sound of feet 
When far away an interrupted cry 
Came over houses from another street, 

But not to call me back or say good-bye; 
And further still at an unearthly height, 
One luminary clock against the sky 

Proclaimed the time was neither wrong nor right. 
I have been one acquainted with the night.
