M   for madreselva,
That is hard to get rid of.
Each bloom is very fragrant,          
Unlike you it has no love.

A   is for amaryllis,
That is well-known for beauty,
Your heart has much more beauty,
That means very much to me.

D is for dandelions,
That landscape the yards in spring,
They're picked by kids for their moms,
Bouquets moms are cherishing,    


R   Is for the rose flowers,
Many with a fragrant scent;
They are easily noticed,            
By people in an instant.                      


E is for ear-leaved tickseed,
It's a gold-centered flower,                   
A type of coreopsis,                  
Bouquets they can empower.                             

Mom, these flowers spell madre,
You're the one whom I love dear;
Mom, it's you whom I cherish,
To hearts your love does adhere.

At the time of conception,
When  you began your pregnancy;
You had become my mother,
And my mom you'll always be.
