be a mother to your soul so fragile

be a mother to your soul so fragile,
wounded by life and years
no longer agile.
nurture your heart so heavy
at times.
fill the empty space with
music, beauty and
rhymes.
hug yourself when
it is cold inside.
you can close your eyes,
but please do not hide.
be a mother to the joys
that come your way.
go outside of yourself
and learn to play.
and when you have
completed these tasks.
share the glow of self
acceptance...
never too much
