THE MOTHER IN ME
It wasn’t long
Before I knew
That the mother in me
Is the mother in you
How you held me tight
On my very first day
From the moment we met
From the things you say
I grew up fast
I grew up strong
You were there
For me all along
When my way was lost
Or when I fell
No need for words
You could always tell
Even today
While we’re apart
My life complete
With you in my heart
So, as I write
This poem to you
Remember this mom
Every word is true
ALL YOU DO
I think it’s fair
That you should know
That all you do
Sets hearts aglow
You are the one
Who does their best
You’re always there
And never rest
To be an aunt
Mom or dad
To be the one
She’s always had
As I watch
This from afar
I must admit
How good you are
They’ll always say
She pulled it thru
They’ll always say
Great things of you
So as I end
This tale to you
You should be proud
Of all you do
THE GOOD IN YOU
I used to think
I used to feel
That what I do
Makes it real
But looking at you
And the way you are
Confirms you’re real
And real by far
We shouldn’t boast
Or brag at all
But just the same
You should stand tall
You have a gift
That others need
I wish I had
That gift to feed
So please go on
And fight the fight
It is in your strength
That HE delights
It is my wish
And of others too
That you also feel
The good in you
-Peace
Nice. :)
A beautiful tribute.
thank you very much, enjoy
