I’m proud to be my mother’s son Her last-born child, the youngest one Her strength I draw with every breath She fills my heart, long after death Her kindness, loyalty and love will stay She guides my path here every day Her laugh and smiles were second to none I’m full of pride for all she’s done She filled my life with love and joy I’ll always be, my Momma’s boy Her memory I often share with others She was loved and cherished, by me and my brothers Grown up now with kids of my own I’m thankful for the path I was shown She gave me life and made me strong In my heart, she will never be gone

Mark, from reading these lines that honor your Mom, it's easy to see why you defend women. Your Momma raised a good boy, who became an even better man.
