Mother
Mother, you are God given.
Sent to me from heaven.
Clothed in strength and dignity.
With love and care,
That's extraordinarily great.
You are an angel in the shape of a mother.
A guardian through any kind of weather.
I want you to live, till your back is bent.
You made it through times.
Hard and good,
With a cheerful smile on your face.
You always laughed about days to come.
Even when no one else saw the light.
You were always optimistic.
You opened your mouth with wisdom.
Teachings of kindness on your tongue.
Mother, other women have done excellently.
But you surpass them all.
You are my greatest inspiration.
A shoulder for me to lean on,
That never lets me down no matter the situation.
Blessed are the works of your hands.
I pray to God everyday,
That I make you proud before your chosen day.
I love you mother.
