*Only when we become a Mother Do we truly understand How much pain comes With unconditional love, It is only then That we realise How much it hurts To be rejected When push comes to shove. To be taken for granted Unintentionally, Or not, To be disrespected, Misunderstood, And talked-down-to, alot. Only when we become a Mother Do we fully comprehend That our Mothers Did the best that they could, They, too, just like us, Had their own issues To deal with; They didn't burden us, We wouldn't have understood! They cried just as much As they smiled--if not more! They gave more than They ever received, They placed everyone's needs Before their own--since the day That we were conceived. They held back tears Whenever we upset them, They died inside Whenever we neglected them And disrespected them. Whenever we patronised them - Whenever we were condescending, Whenever we blammed them - Whenever we took them for granted - When we gave no thought Nor tried to be understanding. They only ever wanted The best for us - They gave of themselves Completely; Something nobody else Was ever capable of, Or willing to do! Only when we lose our Mothers Do we live with the regret, A true blessing, A pure love we were given-- Irreplaceable; Our first real love, The one love We will never, Ever, Replace or forget!

Dedicated to our precious Mothers. Angels without wings! And, whilst I am aware That we weren't all blessed with such giving Mothers, I'm certain that even those whom weren't had a deep intention to be so, but life got the better of them.
