Sometimes, mom have no charm
no harm intended, she offends
mind blinded by pride, mom makes no apologies

We love her any way, forgave words that stung
go tell, she means well, giving hell
spewing wrath like hot ash

Mom demanded respect, seen as suspect, arrested
unforgiven, ignored by one she loves
socially crazed, she retaliated moms grey headiness 

The heart wants that which was lost, and
one uncertain dove, looked for twig after a flood, and
mother's love is never above, discerning right and wrong

A social nut she made peace giving hugs, a dished
released her grudge, hurt feeling, bottled up over time, realizing
life is too short, to lose heart

Batting outright lies, hear says, and strife
from some who take honest chatter to battle
Stripping away peace, seeking derision 

A mother, granddaughter at war, a granddad
caught in the middle, chose uninvolved status
joy and peace recaptured, two hearts left by the wayside
