Mother

Warm your embrace and swathed with love
soft your kiss, from heaven above.
Kind your eyes, freeing adoring smile
capturing attention with finessing style.

Waking hours cradled against breast
soothing voice puts calming to test.
Gentle your touch upon soft head
quiets fear, gently puts to bed.

Firm your hand with words of rebuff
teach disappointment, standing tough.
Love stands beside all lessons learned
knowing your life has her concerned.

Teacher of confidence of fortitude 
with respectfulness, lasting gratitude.
Teacher of love for thyself and another
no one in this world is like your mother.
