Feels goof to be on the Poetry Soup homepage! I thought that my other stuff was much better, but Mom came through :) Thanks Mom, wherever you are now, for everything, and Dad - how can I forget you on this father's day, even after 30 years.

As a child, Mom and Uncle Bob would always tell me how important my mother was. I always love my mother, she just never thought much of me. Great poem A.O!
