Dearest Mother
I’ve seen your tears
Basked in your smiles and bursts of ire
I’ve seen your hard work
Your hands are calloused, worn, and brown
But they’re a gentle caress
As they smoothen my frown
Sweetest Mother
You’re all I’ve known
You raised me and loved me
Care is all you’ve ever shown
The taste of your cooking is the call of home
A flavor sweeter than a honeycomb
Joyous Mother,
I will always be grateful
Truly and forever
For all you’ve done
Remember I love you
So smile, laugh, and cry
It'll all be alright
Cause I’ll be here
Right by your side.
