Cuz
Mom probably knows a lot,
counsels listening, helping,
staying in tune.
Cuz science is as real
as your feelings or mine,
and like us evolving.
Cuz the little bit
we choose to do
adds up exponentially.
Cuz we don’t always know
the cause or the cure
for sure, but we know
this splendid day
is a chance to be careful
and kind,
to steady the mind,
to smile. To get a clue.
