Wife And My Mother Poem by Michael Gelb

To My Joey And My Mother

Mothers are a gift from the heavens above
All through life they share their love

Mothers are the greatest creation
They are what they are and need no explanation

From that first day starts a new life of love and joy
They do anything to protect their baby girl or boy

They walk around as proud as can be
They want to shout look I have a life inside me

Bigger and bigger she gets as time goes by
Some suffer from pain and they cry

There love is so strong that they can bear the pain
They suffer and pray that it all was not in vain

The greatest day on earth has come
With some pain and pushing you are now a mom

You have suffered a lot and sometimes cried
But now it is over and with a baby at your side

Now the easy part is over and your baby is here to stay
You become a doctor a lawyer different people everyday

You protect and raise them through the years
With love joy and even some tears

Now their grown and its time for them to leave
You think back over the years while you grieve

Even thou they are gone and hardly call you
They may not write but they do love you

Mothers belong on a pedestal with the word rare
From the first day till the last they always care

Mothers are and will always be
The greatest any world will ever see

When it is her time to go to heavens place
She is sent back to earth wearing a new face

Over and over a mother they be
To give love to their new baby

Back and forth from heaven to earth
With love and joy and giving birth

Mothers are not one of a kind
They are all the same with love in mind

With love in there heart from heaven they come
Before you move on let me say I love you mom
