Thank You Mom

Nine months of gestational pain 
But for me you bore it with a smile
When it hurts me even a little 
Your heart beat stop for a while 
When I am near you 
Your love wraps me and care
 When I am far from you 
Your  blessings shield me  there
When I am sick 
Your magical touch makes pain shoo away
When I am scared
Your voice makes my fear run away
In success your praise gives me strength to keep up
In failure your encouragement lets me not to give up
When things are going wrong you hold me strong
Like threads of a quilt 
Even when times are hard
You smile like a flower whose petals never wilt
Your love gives me protection 
Mom you truly are an epitome of affection 
I am so blessed with this special gift from above 
I thank God for sending you
To guide me through and shower your love 
I am thankful to you for all you do
I love you too mom as much you do

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
