In thinking
and reflecting
and remembering
about
my
MOM
my AGGIE
and HER
ROUTINE
after
CHRISTMAS


How the same old same old
ROUTINE
she Would DO
when CHRISTMAS
came and was done
over
and
PAST


WellA
my
Mom
she
just was NEVER a Person
to WAIT
and do someTHING
for Tomorrow
to do anyTHING


So
always very
SWIFTLY
and
always very
QUICKLY
she would make things
Happen
And
BRING


The DAYS
after
CHRISTMAS
she was PREPARING
to TAKE
DOWN, the
CHRISTMAS Decorations and
TREE


Then
SPIC
and
SPAN
CLEAN, the Whole
HOUSE
Bottom to TOP
COMPLETELY


BEFORE
NEW
YEARS
SHE
was READY
to
MOVE
MOVE
MOVE
FORWARD


As my AGATHA
my MOM
was JUST
like HER
MOTHER
and WAS
Very
ACTION
FAST
and
DILIGENT
THRIFTY
snd
oh so Humble and
WISE
and they both
PRAYED and PRAYED
ALOT
ALOT
ALOT
but Spoke very few words
ALoud
HEARD


Mom my AGNES
SHE
saved every
Shoe Box
every Wrapping Paper
and Things were PERFECTLY
ARRANGED
and
SQUARED AWAY


My MOTHER and my
GRAND MOTHER
they
were so
QUICK and FAST to MOVE
and TAKE CHARGE of every Task at LARGE
but oh so very Quiet
and
but oh so very Slow
to
SPEAK
BUT
FAST
and
QUICK
FOR
THE
WHOLE WIDE WORLD
they
DID
with
LOVEHOPEandFAITH
very
LOUDLY
LOVINGLY
