Poem
My mom does be a shining lady, one among a million She had been the one giving me support ever since I was born She was the one to spark off in me, my love for books She was the one who would read to me, stories, to help me sleep, at the fall of dusk Yes, without my mom, I would not be who I am today A Health Officer, mind you, with matters pertaining to hygiene, she does not play Always severe and strict with me and my siblings She does take loads of care in food handling She does be my pillar in life She does be the one to shoulder my grief She does be my friend Yes indeed, ever since I was a child, she had held my hand She is, though, a lady who had not had choices Living in a rigid and strict culture, she could not even raise her voice Rather, she was imposed upon Rather, she was trodden upon Intelligent, she still loves learning Even if her topics be related to health or to learn typing She is ready to sacrifice anything To get a bit more of enlightening She is the one because of whom I am the way I am Bold, feminist, a twice thinker, dealing easily with any storm Yes, for I have seen her waging battles And yes, I have seen her emerging winsome My mother does be the one being I do love the most Yes, of her good looks and her witty ways shall I always boast My mother, my gift, the one to care for me Even if I do be one very stubborn and difficult lady! Born she was at the time my country was still under colonization Skim and scarce is her level of education Yet, she is so brave, so hardworking, so courageous and so ambitious She did teach me to be, with matters pertaining to life, one so cautious She lives still today, for that I am thankful Without her, life would surely not feel so joyful She loves dining, wining, dancing and partying Yes, a real lady she is, one of the best, indeed!
