MAMA SUNLIGHT

You grew food from the ground
for us
prepared it tenderly for our infant
mouths

Stitched together our clothes with your
Brilliant fingers
Velvet fabrics of earth colors

Bought land and created a home
for us to rise towards the sun in

(and when we left your arms, and
lifted our own wings you were
always,

Watching, watching
watching over us

and when we had to let you go
let you go to heaven,

We know you're still shinning,
shinning like the sun over us
