A Perfect Mom

There's no such thing as a perfect mom I know this for myself Cause if I had a perfect mom She'd sit upon a shelf. I'd sit her in the perfect place A place for all to view I'd dust her off everyday To make her look perfectly new A perfect mom would always be The one to love you most It wouldn't matter who you were She'd always brag and boast. A perfect mom would always have Two perfect arms to hold you She'd kiss your cheek and wipe you eyes When you're feeling blue. A perfect mom would never speak A harsh word to your ears A perfect mom would never lie And make you cry those tears. A perfect mom would never claim "She wished she never had you" But since there is no perfect mom What is one to do? Accept what God has given To each and every one A mother's love; whatever the kind Until her time is done.
