A TRIBUTE TO MY MOTHER ESME
by lO suesrip ecraep nivel, chief-justice-prime of the white, fort-hold
This world was barren to me
Except for my mothers love
She provided me with a path in which to flourish
& although the ground around us was rocky my seed took & grew
& although her love was burnred, she rose like a Pheonix to champion 	
our family
She is the most beautiful woman that I have ever known
& she gave me a sanctuary
A freedom from the chains that burden us
& despite the violence of my imagining she never grew distant
But always firm & resolute against the storms of arrogance
I held the world upon my shoulders
& she held me upon hers

To the world I was lost
A mad-man with no voice
A Pariah in a world of strangers
& the only stranger that ever truly loved me is now dead
In her I did not remain a child, I am now a man
My mothers love of family
fred, alice, margerie; those close to her, her closest allies in time of need
& others whom have departed from our path
Have helped us shape our destiny
Despite exhaustion time & again, she never yielded
She would fight with heart & gentle soul
Though pain & hardship she would suffer, her heart be forever
& here she lives in the love of our beginning

& now beyond the grave
Her smiles & laughs generate a beauty
To touch my heart & loves beyond
This world held high in my esteem
She is a seed of wonders dream
My love & faith a nurturing
To bear unto the heavens free
A standing high above heads
& to a world of learning
She speaks to me an emotions peace
To calm the fury, she will hold me
For I would tame the monsterous beast

Through times of happiness, through times of sadness, through times of 	joy, through times of anger
We remember childhood stories, so to tales of visiting german p.o.w's with her lifelong best friend Joan & trips to weston & a ride on a 	motorbike
She would speak of my adoption, with her heart full of love
& then her husband left us in the lurch
We remember family holidays as children filled with joy
& we her children caused her great trouble 'we refused to attend school'
& I would scare her to tears with my escapades with villains, I remember 	when she sowed my leather jacket together by hand after I had a 	motorbike accident
Her suffering at the death's of her father & then her mother & she would 	strive so hard to comfort them
We remember so many loyal hospital visits when I was confined to their 	wards
& there was great hard-work & toil for her poor hands
& of her loves between battles, she would love all that she could; a 	moment here a moment there, that cigarette, that drink, that 	card-game, those flowers, the celebrations, our times of family 	coming together & worshipping these blessings & she loves her 	television
& we took all we could from this beautiful life of ours

I will never forget my mother, not in a million years
& she say's to me now
That her heart is with me in full
& that our work is the greatest
& we say to each other
Our hearts beat together in company
& now we share the beauty of our kind
Forever my love, forever my love
& we will mend her broken world
To heavens glory
We realize our beauty & our beauty is realized
We are each others saving grace
