For my Mother

This I wrote for you Mom.

A baby's first breath announced in a healthy cry,
followed delightfully is a new mothers sigh.
An instant bond as she lays so sweetly on her chest,
a mothers love will grow from this moment without rest.
Hungered, tired and helpless I call
For my loving mother, come and care for all.

As I grew I continued to voice my pains to my mother.
Her loving arms couldn't be replaced by any other.
A scraped knee, broken bone, or rats in my nightmare,
she would come quickly to wipe away my last tear.

As a teenager I would cry when my heart was broken,
and she was there to reassure with her soft words spoken.
My wedding day soon came and tears filled my eyes,
as I hugged and thanked her for our loving ties.

Becoming a mother myself I can finally see,
just what exactly my mother did for me.
No matter my age or stage in life,
theres one thing I can rely on in moments of strife.
When lifes toughest challeneges I have to face.
It is her that I run to for a warm embrace.

As my heart is aching, my soul so weary,
and fear is as far as my eyes can see.
Her love and comfort is what eases the pain,
without her my life would not be the same.

I Love You Mommy! Happy Mothers Day!
