Dear Mother

DEAR MOTHER Dear Mother of all Sweetest mother of all Time Queen of the world of women You never aborted me You raise me with your hard earn You teach me the way of the righteous You Bless me with the blessing of your mouth Who will I praise if not you Who will I believe if not you Who will I trust if not you You that carry me for nine months You put me to bed on the 17th Day of the Sixth Month of the Glorious Year You breast feed me till I am fit for the race You put together your earning for my first birthday You work under the sun and the rain just for me to be among equals I understand it is not easy in this part of the world Yet you gave me a reason to live And even though I heard I use to be stubborn when I a little kid Yet your love for me never ceased Memories fade me not of my past failure You hold me close to you and whisper to my ear saying "Foluso The sun still shine, you can still make it" No wonder I am reaching my goals now because your Sweet words still live in me Words are not enough to express how I feel But I have to tell you this Sweet mother Ain’t a woman alive that can take my mama’s place
