You loved me and accepted me, for who I am Loving unconditional I was your little lamb And Auntie, though your womb was closed No baby born as you'd once supposed With the baby boomers boom No baby in your nursery room Yet truest love, my Aunt to me The sweetest gift would ever be Your gift of love for each you knew Oh Auntie, your love was so true Though you're lifted from this sphere May angels bout' you Close and near Whisper in your precious ear BJ adores you Auntie dear A whispered "Thank you!" From this heart Undying love cannot depart May these words lift up to say Aunt Betty; Happy Mother's Day <3

I was blessed by great love of my Grand Mom She took the place of my Mother Love.

Thank you for your visit, Anisha, your poem is so beautiful. I am glad that your grandmother was there for you. Sometimes a mother's love is emitted by others who didn't give birth to us, and these so deserve the honor of a loving tribute <3

Thank you, Beata, for your visit and uplifting comment <3 My Aunt was a dear, I was blessed to be named after her. She loved children, yet never had one herself. I think 'Mother' is such a beautiful title. I know beautiful women who have a high calling to children, a mothering instinct that provides love and care that may be lacking in another area of a child/person's life. My aunt had many nieces and nephews, children who were blessed by her. She had a mother's heart; such a kind heart <3 I'm blessed that you like my poem in honor of her :) ~BJ

I suppose Aunt Betty was more a mother to you ! A beautiful and heartfelt tribute to her, BJ

She wasn't able to raise me, but she always was near. Her nurture was so loving and encouraging. I wrote another poem about her, it explains a bit about what kind of lady she was in "The Sweetest Gift, A Childhood Memory' which was about my dear aunt. Thank you for your visit Valsa, your words always encourage me, God bless you my sweet friend <3 ~BJ
