A True Mother You Are Poem by malibongwe bobo

A True Mother You Are



You were there in agreement with my dad
He made love to you
You never hesitated
When you felt me growing in your womb
For the fact that you never had second thoughts of keeping me it was a blessing
A true mother you are
You carried me through dark days, cold days and hot days yet you never gained hate
You bonded with me through the umbilical cord
Groomed me while I was still a foetus
Loved me every second that passed by
You touch was the best ever
You never rejected me
Never turned against me
Never undermined me
Even though we fight sometimes
Even though you yell a lot I still love you
I can't imagine my life without you mum
Its like you are my goddess on earth
You are my shoulder to cry on
You show me love no matter how bad I mess your heart up
No matter how I cause you headaches, sleepless night
You are the best mum ever I love you mum
Without you am not complete
You are my other half
I love you a lot mum

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Sometimes its hard for us to see how our parents are important while they are around I realised that I need my mum when she was admitted at the hospital
COMMENTS OF THE POEM

True, some of us don't value our parents like we value our boyfriends and girlfriends. we forget that, we are what we are today because of these people. if they didn't love and care for us we wouldn't be where we are today. but that said, I think the poem could have been better than what it is now, with more imagery and deepness had you used words that are not usually used and phrases, its just my opinion, I may be wrong but still I enjoyed reading it.
