Mother

She gave birth to me one glorious day
She nurtured me the proper way
She watched me grow big and strong
She taught me the difference between right and wrong
She told me about the birds and the bees
She taught me to say thank you and please
We’re only given one and never another
I thank God for the one I call “Mother”

A very devotional, heart told and felt poem. A Anaphora type poem indeed.
