What is a mother?
Someone whose life
Gave birth
To a new soul
Someone whose heart
Pumped blood to life
Whose eyes opened fresh ideas...
The eyes of opportunity
What is a mother?
Someone whose true love
Breathed passion into
My very being
Someone whose tears of joy
Taught me how to laugh
And whose tears of sorrow
Taught me how to cry
What is a mother?
Sensitivity
Leading to being
With humanity
Thank you Mom
For teaching me
To walk and talk
And negate hate
Thank you Mom for being there
When fear paralysed me
Holding my hand in safety
Everything is...OK
