My Only Teacher - Mother

She enlightened my mind,

And softened my heart.

Her smile had her legacy

The dimples she passed on to me.

That kind lady added light to my dull day

She heard what I didn't say!

She did all that no one could do

For me she took all onto

Her own self, her own life

She is exactly what one will wish for

And what I needed

She is that soul filled with selflessness,

She brings calm to all that mess,

Because she is too good, too kind

Too gentle for the undeserved

When it all ended

She survived

For me, For us

Selflessness carried her care

And took away all my nightmares

The Best!
