Cory Ruda (7/31/91)

From my Mother,
In her womb, life received.
In her arms, life nourished.
In her words, life named.
In her thought, life explained.
In her tears, life rued.
In her joy, life relished.
In her heart, life fulfilled.

To my Mother,
What a son could only pray to give to her,
Happiness.
