Mum
A remarkable role
A woman so strong,
Courageous, intrepid, resilient, headstrong.
A figure of pride and inspiration,
A valiant star of admiration.
A hero, a guardian, a teacher, a lover,
The compassion and values that make her my mother.
Supportive and loyal for twenty six years,
She caught my falls and stopped my tears.
Provider of love and pure affection,
My heroic figure of warmth and protection.
A woman held in such high regard,
Who keeps me strong when times are hard.
She taught me faith and trust and honesty,
She taught me love, and pride and modesty.
My world, my life, my golden lining,
My star of beauty, so bright and shining.
