A Mother's Heart

 

In nature and humanity there are all styles of mothering.

There are humans and animals, male and female, who've never given birth

but have a mother's heart and demonstrate that daily.

To mothers and to all those with a mother's heart, 

Thank you

and

Happy Mother's Day.

Barn Swallow

The nests are gone
Go away
With your scissor tail
You can not build
A nest here

They flit
Swoop
And chatter
Like many in life
They build again
And again.
