I love you like this

me and my mom. circa 1985

I love you like burgundy
warm and rich
and strong as your character
when no one else is looking

I love you like home
safe and comforting
and sweet
and the patchouli shadows
in your eyes

I love you in circles
colored by fall
and every time we finish
we're only just beginning

I love you like this

    is it the color burgundy as Chrissy implies, I think of the great red wine, that grows better with time... what a great tribute to mom!
