MOTHER -3rd place

Her life, she gambled, for you to see the light 
She sheltered you from the dark and the bright 
She catched the scorching sun to block the heat to your skin 
She molded you to be better from outside and within

She laid her happiness for your future to be bright 
She gave way to your pride and made you think you were right 
She walked your walk and carried you on her arms 
She gave you confidence and filled your soul with charms 

She played the role of a father for you to have your needs 
She gave you everything, more than your lavish feeds 
She sacrificed her dreams just to see you sleep tight 
She endured years working far, not having you at her sight 

But more than everything, she gave you gift of love 
Something that you should be thankful to the stars above 
Without her gift of love, your existence had no color 
She is an epitome of true greatness and valor
