Landlocked constellations
Trapped beneath a brown blanket
Fighting to glow
From atop nature's highest thrown
A delicate gold chain draped across Mother's neck
Radiantly highlighting Her beautiful curves
Encrusted with precious jewels, it sparkles
Catching the eye of any who take the time to notice
In person, these gems seem obnoxious
Distracting from the diamonds above
Our gift is our burden
Smile with it while you still can
