A Mother's Love

In my life there has been one constant
A special someone, true and unwavering
Whose love for me is heaven sent
Deep, abiding and unchanging.

She is my mother, there is no other
From the moment I can first remember
My momma's voice, her caring eyes
Sweet, soft kisses, her hugs so tender.

Mom, always available and there for me
Through the years, my whole life through
Listening and giving words of comfort
In her understanding way so true.

No one could never, no never ever
Replace my dear and precious mother
And I thank God that I've been blessed
With my dear mother, she is like no other.

Laura Leiser February 19, 2015 at 3:14 PM Thank you, Gabriel. We are so fortunate to have been blessed with wonderful mothers. It is truly a gift from God!

Emile Pinet February 19, 2015 at 10:18 AM I believe that a mother/daughter bond has no match in the human equation. The love that you share between you is remarkable and so self evident in this poem. Your words are like a bouquet of flowers that brighten the senses and pay tribute to the love that is your mother. You have stored all the best your mother gave to you in your heart so that you may dispense it to others and they too can be touched by the experience. Emile #7 Laura Leiser February 19, 2015 at 2:21 PM Thank you so much for your very kind comments, Emile! My mother truly shaped my life, and I feel SO blessed that God chose to give her to me :)
