MAMA BY JAMAL LYON

So, I actually looked up some Wonderful songs for mothers all over the globe. Stumbled upon one this morning but it was an indigenous song you’d probably love but not understand. Hence, this song which I actually heard in a very wonderful series.

The song goes out to all the wonderful mothers in the globe. Take this time out to listen to the song, compose a poem for your mother and share with us.

Remember, you could tell someone about us or probably write a review on Google for DWW.

Poetry contest is still on. $200 for best poem.

Just so you know, we love you.

  1. ‪Sunlight opens my memories
    forty-eight hour labor
    cherishes us like no one
    eyes that traveled in time.

    Dancing a samba all our lives
    we stepped forward with her
    loving embrace around us
    every song was ours.

    Living in syncopated rhythm
    she umbrellaed our lives
    storms feared her wrath
    I love you, Mom.

  2. Hovering haze
    twinkle my eyes loving
    the litany of joys
    Sweetly praised
    in my mama’s gaze

    forested groves
    Brings me home
    to the treasures i crave
    mystically bold
    her love to hold

    crested emotions
    heart beat devotion
    mellifluously shines
    under a golden sky
    larger than life

  3. “The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world.”
    It’s Mama who sings the lullaby to the little Christian babe.
    Says the mantra for the Hindus mild,
    Turns her face to Mecca for the Islam child.
    Mama, we are always your most willing slave.
    This place is your Empire,
    To your loving will we cave.

  4. Mother true
    Always there for you
    Trusting always understanding
    Not demanding
    As I get older I have you to cry on my shoulder
    As I get older you change your ways
    Mother you always pleased me
    Now I’m prepared for you to release me
    Into a world that will receive me
