The Love of My Mother

None was like your touch
Far from home
Alone in this survival dome
For my weak legs, you are my crutch.

Your cuddle, I miss
Be in my dreams tonight
With you, such is a glorious sight
Without you, I dream amiss.

I feel safe and secured
Under your arms around me
Like a knight destroying every enemy
When sick I am cured.

The love of my mother
Nothing to be compared with another.
