Momma Did

Who had chicken soup
Simmering in a kettle,
Momma did ...
Letting the flavors mettle

Who baked sugar cookies 
Shaped with a cookie cutter,
Momma did ...
And made with real butter 

Who made things right
When all else was wrong,
Momma did ...
And it didn't take long 

Who didn't give up
Nor ever let me,
Momma did ...
That's where her heart be

Who loved me always 
Just the way I was,
Momma did ...
Simply ... because.

Your poem made me stop to think of how one person can influence our lives. Your love for Momma is obvious.
