Mothers are devoted to their children from birth,
When their offsprings are in pain,
Mothers also hurt,
Social graces are thrown out the door quickly
especially when their children are treated poorly,
All their power and wrath become unleashed
to protect their children from charlatans and
thieves,
They will rearrange places,
shutdown cities if someone
treats their children shabbily,
A mothers rationality goes out
the window,
if their children are plagued with
bullyism and innuendos,
Children can always depend on their
mothers putting all worries to an end,
even if they have to turn
themselves into super heroes,
They will not give up until they
eradicate all their childrens' woes.

"HEAVEN 2008"
My mother has passed and went to heaven.
Left on this earth her children of seven.
One left early when he was small.
Now he's in heaven grown big and tall.
She has left this world and hasn't been gone long.
We will feel the hurt and pain but we'll stay strong.
You will be remembered and missed on your way to heaven.
Sending her our love and kisses her children of seven.

Ode to Mother
Mothers are the greatest
Mothers are the love,
That children hold the dearest
Mothers overlook the things
That children often do
That’s why Mother, we
Sing this song to you.
We hold you in the deepest
Section of our heart.
And show you, Mother, that we love you
And with you we’d never part
Although we never tell you
Somehow we need for you to know
That the friend we sometimes need,
Is found in you indeed.
Our friendship is one that
Blossoms from a bud
And flourishes into what
A daughter calls a MOM
