ITS MAMAMI'S DAY!

I lay in your arms crying

So gentle not knowing what to do

Little did I know

Those hands would continue to hold me

And they wouldn’t stop

You were always there

Have always been there

Feeding, nurturing, caring

All I needed and more

I found in you

When I needed scolding

You didn’t hide it

When I needed love

You immersed me in it

When I needed ears

You removed yours from your issues

And dropped them at my feet

When I needed a shoulder

Yours was readily available

Even when you didn’t know what to say

You encouraged me

Strengthened me

Rocked me

And most of all

Prayed

And prayed

And kept praying
I know you're still praying

A sweet gem you are

And your sweet scent

Is the reason I move on

From time to time

Your courage is exhilarating

Your wisdom is on-point

Your love is stronger than death

Your life is a source of wealth

I cherish and adore you

You still are my love

My treasure

My precious

Happy Mothers’ day Mamami

I love you more than you will ever imagine.
