The Glue

Unwrap and uncap something brand new

White drops stop on the the bottle of glue

All held together, stuck in one place

Brought together by a sticky white paste

You are the bold plaster that tightly secures

You are the unconditional love that endures

You are the glue!

People may come, others may go

Your steadfastness is all we know

You are counted on and depended in

You are where our day begins and ends

You are the glue!

You are empathetic and diplomatic

Enthusiastic, sympathetic, and authentic

You share an inexhaustible love

One we can all take part of

You are the glue!

When tragedy befalls

You answer life's calls

You wrap our fears in a blanket so warm

Confiding, not hiding, from life's strident storm

We are held together, embraced by you

Dear-Kindhearted Mom, You are our Glue!
