A Love Letter To Mama

Dear Mama, How are you? How are you, mother of my loving childhood? Thy generous spirit is a beckon in my mind Thou hast thou me always to be kind You hands are ever diligent as the Virtuous Woman My heart tickles at the sight of you mama Thy love flows gently as the river Into the crooked stream of my heart How awesome is thy tender love! I'm honoured to be cuddled in the fortress of your arms To be calmed by the wisdom of your soothing tongue In your heart's treasure are little gifts of loving deeds Your supplication to God for me are as the myriad sand How I love thee, O my peculiar friend! Thy heart was made to love and for such a tender heart True love cannot but be requited Your love is the aromatic plant, seasoning my life Now I envision a routine of charity To this world saved by a sacrificial love Which is the truest love of all I'd be an epitome of compassion I cross my heart mama My heart is made fat with kindness I drank the nectar of love And my soul is willing to give back O! life in love is most beautiful! Great father for me, mama And the little baby, Adamma

Lovely write. I just lost mine, so your poem touches me especially. Don't tell me this poem is just fiction.
