Mom Dearest

You were with me when it mattered most,

You showed me the way when I was lost,

You are my mommy dearest,

Always full of care,

When I need you are

Always there.

Years spent with you are now

Memories,

Stored in my mind like

Beautiful stories.

All those lessons of life,

You left behind

Are now a part of my mind.

You taught me to be too honest

And bold, in my journey,

Be unafraid to chart your

Own destiny.

I never saw you cry in all my

Years,

But you were always there to

Wipe my tears.

To me, you were the visible

The face of God,

Always blessing others like our lord.

The beauty of life started in your womb,

The umbilical cord will stretch till I reach my tomb.
