For my beautiful mother,

 
 
Tracing back along the red ribbon
to the central force, safely hidden,
when our thoughts were entwined
and your rhythm began mine.
Silently feeling in the warmth
a pure love, a real love,
a calm we’re all seeking to repeat,
that incredible still and comfort,
as if life were complete
 just at the very beginning...
