Thanks Mom, by Berkley Walker

Mother would never yell-
it would ruin her voice,
so she would sing
when others would scream

Dinner time is one thing
but imagine a chorus
at your wrestling match,
or your cross-country meet!

But I will tell you this,
I never grappled better
nor ran faster-
than when cheered by a Soprano.

Thanks Mom.

Berkley Walker writes a poem a day on his blog "The Legend of Berkley"
