A Moment of Respect

casket

Silently we stand
in a moment of respect
the shell of she
who birthed, nurtured us
gave us all she never had
passes by

A moment of tears
memories both good and bad
as they lift her into
the hearse, a life cycle
ended, a mother laid to rest
as we stand
in a moment of respect
