She and Nick'd sit correcting each other
over items small or large or between
as if it were a really important scene
to see who first conceded out, “Mother”!
Both of them used to being the smartest
person in the room, so they were perfect
for each other to be the one either picked
to perform together before host or guest.
We got used to her because there's balance
in how she was opening their hearts to us,
and to those who needed some help, plus
working against greed's grasping advance.
Remembering how she'd plead for trees, deer,
raccoons and God, not being overlooked here.
