MY MOTHER

You painted no Madonnas
On chapel walls in Rome;
But with a touch diviner,
You lived one in your home.

You wrote no lofty poems
That critics counted art;
But with a nobler vision,
You lived them in your heart.

You carved no shapeless marble
To some high soul-design;
But with a finer sculpture,
You shaped this soul of mine.

You built no great cathedrals
That centuries applaud;
But with a grace exquisite,
Your life cathedraled God.

Had I the gift of Raphael
Or Michelangelo
Oh, what a rare Madonna
My mother’s life should show!

- Thomas W. Fessenden
