Someone Special Poem by KwaNdebele Science School

There is someone special to me
And also very very near to me.
That person has done so much
For me in life including
Raising me,
Feeding me,
Caring me,
And also being there for
Me in times of troubles.
If it wasn't for this person,
What would have been my career:
Will I be in care home?
End up doing prostitution?
Being a gangster and reining people's life
Or even ending up commuting crime.
This person is my key to success
And is my ticket to good life.
And this special person is
None other than my mother.

So I would like to salute her
For everything that she has done.
Because raising up a child is a fortune.
She trained me in a very well manners way.
She went through ups and downs with
Me but still she manage to survive.
