My Mommy

My mommy has elmos laugh.
She is a part of the riverside staff.

My mother is really short.
Baketball is her favorite sport.

Peanut is my mothers nickname.
In basketball she brought her a-game.

She loves me a whole bunch.
She always takes me out to lunch.

My love for her will never die.
This is truly NOT a lie.

This poem is finally over.
Now she knows i love her.

cherica, you are so shallow when you write about yourmommy. go deep and speak of the 9months she carried you and nurture, and provided the necessaries fluids need to begin your beautiful formation within her womb. speak of the times she nagered you and brought you in the light of truth with her firm hand of correction. truly speak of her magnificence as God himself would praise her. my mommy and daddy are decease. truly they would be my treasures if they were alive. thank you.

She has probably always known you love her, Cherica, but now she has it in writing. Lovely thoughts in your poem! Love, Carolyn
