My Mother's Hum
My mother hums
The top ten popular songs
Of the day
Like multiple pieces
Strung together
She hums
So beautiful
And sweet
That makes the birds
In the trees
Chirp and tweet
Every single moment
I wonder
Why she hums
Here
There
And yonder
She hums
So wonderful
That gets her through the day
A lovely hum
That keeps my feelings at bay
She hums
A special song
When she tucks me into bed
Conquers my fear of darkness
And drives away
The ghosts at night
That linger in my head
How can I survive
This everyday life
I will never know
A never ending struggle
If it were not for her
I could be nowhere
Rose Marie Juan Austin
