M.O.T.H.E.R. A Poem for Mothers' Day
I've always wanted to write a poem dedicated to my mum. So I finally did. But it's also for all mothers everywhere who do the best (and sometimes hardest) job in the world.
Bless you one and all!
M.O.T.H.E.R.
My One True Hero Ever Rules
The Queen who crowns my joy with jewels
My One True Hero Ever Reins
The Hand who guides me through the pain
My One True Hero Ever Roots
The Earth who turns my buds to shoots
My One True Hero Ever Rears
The Arm who cradles all my years
My One True Hero Ever Roars
The Lioness who gives me claws
My One True Hero Ever Rings
The Bell who chimes my everything
My One True Hero Ever Roasts
The Pin who pops my bloated boasts
My One True Hero Ever Rocks
The Song who turns back all my clocks
My One True Hero Ever Rolls
The Beat who softly drums my soul
My One True Hero Ever Rides
The Wave who ebbs and flows inside
My One True Hero Ever Rests
The Pride who always sees my best
My One True Hero Ever Roams
The Truth who always takes me home
My One True Hero Ever Reigns
The Queen who powers through my veins
