My mother

Who's love is compared
 to that of a life manual?
One who wakes up 
at any sound you make.
One who stays up all night 
Rocking you to sleep.

One who cries behind closed doors ,
But put on a façade in my presence,
One who Is worth more than anything.
One who gave me this thing called life.

Who am I not to honour my mother?
Weather rich or poor,
She will always be my mother.
She is the one who takes 
the place of others 
but her place can never 
be filled by anyone. 
Her heart as pure as snow,
In her warmth I find hope,
In her warmth I find peace.

In her word I find wisdom.
In her word I find knowledge.
She whom your smile is her
Utmost joy and happiness.

Every prayer she says is a blessing,
Everything she touches is gold.
A queen in her own kingdom.
An angel with glorious wings.
A beauty beyond imagination.
The bravest of all.

She who walks through storms and lightning with high heads.
Fight battle with love,
Nurture with patient,
And love with tenderness.

Take a moment to celebrate her,
Cause she deserves to be celebrated.
More and more,
Over and over.
She deserves to be happy
