A Mother's Love

She was the supreme queen of the household Her worth to me was much more than gold She nursed and took care of me from small My debt to her I can't repay at all Though she had no schooling to read and write In the school of life she was very bright She was there for me throughout my childhood Always urging me to do what was good Some things with her, I did take for granted Now I wish such things I never did She always sought to give me of her best Now she has gone to her final rest I know that there are many others With similar tales of their mothers You can search far and wide and up above There's no other love like a mother's love Dedicated to my mother and to all mothers everywhere
