Affixed to my wall
for all visitors to see,
is a sign that implies
loving kindness from me.
Hugs and kisses
and milk and cookies,
I offer free babysitting -
the offer is generous and befitting.
Never a mother,
only an auntie
but shining about my head
is a golden halo mimicking a mommy.
Hugs and kisses
and a kind word, two, or three,
eager to invest in children
who I can play with and bounce on my knee.
Never a mother
in the biological world of birth,
but as a compassionate love-filled friend
I'm sure the kids I love, understand my worth.
