Truly the Best

A raindrop on the ground, The air is pushing through, I don't know what I did To get a mother like you, I never went without supper, Or clothes on my back, My momma is one Who doesn't know how to relax, There was never a mess In our lovely dome, It was cleaned from top to bottom Before us kids got home, She even went to college While still caring for us kids, It is a wonder to this day How she ever closed her eyelids, As problems would occur She never gave up hope, Loving us three kids Is how she would cope, Though there are times That I start up a fight, She is the main reason My life is going right, So now I take this moment To give thanks to my mom, Not only for giving birth to me But for raising me to be strong!
