Poem by my mother, poet Alicia Zavala Galván
Nourishment
I feed you willingly and eagerly
and let this child and all of my children
drink of my milk flowing
a fountain of nutrition
for the body and the soul
I feed you not looking
at your skin color or ethnicity
because a mother does not distinguish
between the love of her children
for then she would cease
to be a mother
and her milk would turn bitter
and therefore embitter
the child that comes to her
for food, for comfort, for warmth
for hope, for love
The nourishment I give you
is composed of
all the good
all the compassion
all the humanity
all the justice
all the unselfish
so that your heart
will remain open
to all who approach
for help,
for food
for lodging
I will remain vigilant
should someone
try to dissuade you
from what is your responsibility
to humans on this planet
and other beings
in the universe that you
may cross the paths
of your life
Let the milk you drink from me
help you to grow to be an example
of all that is good in this world
