My Mam Jackie. Poem by David Boyce

My Mam Jackie.

My mam is a marvel,
One of life's hidden gems,
I would write down all the good things I could,
But I don't have time for all of them.

My mam really looked after us,
When we were really ill,
With all the cwtches and motherly love,
She gave us all the will.

My mam will say she isn't special,
But her family will disagree,
Because she loves us all the same,
Wherever we may be.

My mam is an angel,
Sent to us in disguise,
But I don't need to tell you all,
Because this is no surprise.

My mam is full of energy,
And always on the go,
When anyone is in need of help,
She will rarely say No!

To many she is just Jackie,
But she has made us what we are,
So as a Special thank you,
I say to Mam, You are a Star!
