Stevie Wonder by Robert Ball

“Mama was my greatest teacher;
a teacher of compassion,
love and fearlessness.
If love is sweet as a flower, 
than my mother is that sweet flower of love.” 
– Stevie Wonder

perhaps written for a different relationship, the beautiful
thoughts transcend to Mother’s Day as well.
