Love Me Mommy?

Lene' Mumaugh 1961 (Billings, Montana)

Free verse
I love you more than all of the
Sunniest days
I love you more than every single
Night fall
When the morning dove calls
I think of you
When the old gray owl speaks,
I think of you
You ask, "Love me, Mommy?"
I love you more than the greatest
Ocean tide
These words are only words
The love I feel for you
Cannot be measured
By any single moment
My love grows as you
Grow.
