A mother

A mother sees you first,

She’s there through the best and worse.

A mother gets you fed,

But not necessarily in bed.

 

A mother watches you grow,

Take your first steps in the snow.

A mother watched you cry,

When you’ve told your first lie.

 

A mother is there when you smile,

Even if it’s just for a while.

A mother helps when you’re in pain,

Through the sunshine and the rain.

 

A mother walks you to school,

And comforts when the kids are cruel.

A mother is there when you’ve fell and you bleed,

Oh yes, she’s there, she’s there indeed.

 

A mother is there when you’re feeling insecure,

When everything around you is a blur.

A mother is there when you are sad,

And she calms you when you’re mad.

 

A mother is there when you face the wall,

No matter what she’s there through it all.

A mother brings you sunshine on a rainy day,

And she loves you all the way.
