‘Mother’

Written By Walid K
Mother & Son on beach in sunset

My Mother

The most precious treasure in my heart

To show you how much I love you

for all that you are

for all you have done

I would have to raise the oceans

from the bed of the sea

I would have to make the suns shine

from galaxies afar

on to this Earth

If I had the power, I would

But I am only a son

a son of a most tender loving mother

Human in every way

as you showed me to be

In this moment

as we are lands apart

all I have is words

From me to you Mother…

I miss you

I love you

forever and infinitely!

Walid recently rediscovered his passion for writing when he came across some poems which he had written more than 20 years ago.

Walid receives inspiration when spending time in nature and when reading or listening to authors like Alan Watts, Carl Gustav Jung, Fritjof Capra, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Gregg Braden, Bruce Lipton, Jim Rohn, Brian Tracy, Wayne Dyer, Denis Waitley and Anthony Robbins.

He also finds that he unveils deep insights and reflections when writing speeches that he delivers at his local Toastmasters’ public speaking club.

Rumi said, “there is a voice that doesn’t use words… listen”. When we spend time in nature, and when we read and write about subjects we resonate with, we begin to hear the whispers of our inner voice.
