Notes About The Poem

"Many people in our life may come, stay and/or go,
But only One Mother will we be blessed with to have and know."
~ Quote by Artsieladie 

My Hero by Artsieladie

My Hero

My dearest, sweet Mother
Like you, there's no other.
A true lady personified,
Always humble, dignified.
With tenacity, embraced,
Every challenge you faced.
With dedication immense,
Determination intense,
With courage abounding
And strength astounding,
Your values remained,
Integrity sustained.

The life you forged was one of giving.
The joy of others was your joy of living.
You asked for little, but gave so much.
You sought no praise, yet, did so touch,
The lives of many, close or not.
Your legacy of valor shan't be forgot.
You are My Hero. You always will be
And forever you live inside of me.
My tribute to you is to live and aspire,
To be as honourable as you, I seek and desire.
