Mommy Dearest

Dear Mom,
I love you the whitest. Like the feathers of swans or snow flakes on Christmas morning. I love you like frosted window panes, and like cirrus clouds in the sky. I love you like a smile full of paper white teeth. I love you like vanilla buttercream frosting, piano keys, and coconut milk on a tropical Tahitian beach. I love you white like the fullest of full moons, the deepest layer of an onion peeled, like the stork that flew me to you. I love you the whitest of all.

Happy Mother's Day.

Love,
Jo Jo
