How many times now has she left,
   through sorrow pain or strife;
Or has she ever turned away,
   at any point in life?

She'll always be your ONE true love,
    she's shown you love so strong;
We'll never find another love,
    that's close to love from mom!!

God placed her here to teach you things,
    to guide you with her love,
To stand by you no matter what,
   as Jesus does above!

You ran to her with wounded knee,
   she kept you safe from harm;
You learned so fast there's no one place,
    as safe as momma's arms!

And when the trials of life seem hard,
   or someone breaks your heart;
We all run home to talk to mom,
   her love will never part!

I tell mine now just all she means,
   I may have lived all wrong,
But never once you left my side,
   I LOVE YOU SO MUCH MOM!!
The bare pads
of her toes
thumped

across
the photo-faded
tiles

Fingertips
outstretched
at full attention

Precious enough
to catch
the kiss

only
mama's lips
could gift

She walked
away
slowly

taking
great
care

exhibiting
to all who
didn't know

the only thing
she knew to
treasure

There's but one lady in my life
   who means this much to me;
A humble lady bent on love,
   best mother that can be!

There's not once been a love so true,
   for any man on earth;
A patient love you'll never find,
   a special love since birth!

With just "the look" she kept me straight,
   I'd want for wrong no more;
Though times I felt the battle won,
   but momma won the war!

There's many a time I've let her down,
   but still she stood right here;
With strength a thousand legions strong
   and love you can't compare!

Not once she ever turned on me,
   with her I'm more than blessed;
'Cause any time I ran to her,
      she stood with arms outstretched!

She's always been a pillar there,
   for me to lean upon;
No greater love can one man find
   than love from just his mom!

So, mother dear, I thank you now,
   for guidance from afar,
For loving me and holding me--
   for EVERYTHING you are!
I wrote this to the first true love in my life...My beautiful mother!! I love you mom!

There is a boy who has taken away my heart
And that boy calls me mother.

You are a solider,
The war of my life is at a cease,
Its the stillest moment I've ever lived,
Because you are my solider,
You are a protector,
The wreck of others is trashed,
You know the right words to say,
Fixed my heart when it's mashed,
For that I adore you,
Aegis,
You absorb the bad,
Dispense the good,
You are knocked down,
You get back up and walk,
You are hurt,
You are pain,
You are love,
You are joy,
You're my Aegis,
Many try to mock,
Many try to ruin,
Many tried to fix,
Aegis
God walks in your walk,
God shines in your smile,
God moves in your spirit,
God talks through your voice,
Aegis,
If you want to see the beauty,
I'd advise you to look closer,
It's not what you think it is,
It's what I see, I'm a boaster,
I am proud,
I have pride,
I have the greatest mother Alive,
And I just want the world to know you're beautiful,
Go ahead,
Seek and you shall find,
It's not in the weight,
Or the size of your behind,
You'll find it in the bathroom,
On an item that reflects,
My Aegis look in the mirror,
And tell me what you see,
When you see yourself,
Smile and let your light gleam !
Dedicated to Lisa Pollard, My Mother, My Aegis

Yes I've seen that I'm the blessed one,
  in more than every way;
When I first met you, my mother,
   On my very first birth day!

Oh yes, My God made perfect sense
   as following Master's plan;
When He placed you as my mother,
   named me, your biggest fan!

I wouldn't change the smallest thing,
   nor'd ever chose another;
So i tell you now, I'm more than blessed,
   to have you as my mother!

So mother, you're much more than
   just a woman who gave birth;
You're a masterpiece and then some,
   that my God sent down to earth!

It's this time of year again,
   that we thank Our God above;
For that special one He sent,
   for to share a mother's love!

It's  a love above all else,
   you will see if just you'll pause;
That she gave more than all,
   and looked over all your flaws!

She'll wrap you up in loving arms,
   hold you closer day by day;
Walk beside you hand in hand,
   show she's there, and there to stay!

So treat your mom with all respect,
   for she's loved you since your birth;
She's the only mom you'll have,
   for your time upon this earth!

So dear mom, I love you so,
   and I pray from this day on;
That you'll feel my love for you,
   know I'm blessed to call you "Mom"!

Have you ever thought about
  what your mother's love is worth?
It's the closest thing to Heaven
  any man can feel on earth!

It's so meaningful and true
  as she holds you in her arms.
She'll protect and keep you safe
  from this life and all it's harms!

She'll stand right by your side
  no matter what you've done.
She'll be the one to hold you up
  when your so called friends are gone!

Yes she brought you here to earth
  and you'll find she'll take you out;
If at one time in your life
  her precious love you ever doubt

For no matter what the time,
  when my running now is done;
Mom'll wrap me in her arms
  saying "Welcome home my son!"

So listen as I tell you now;
  you will never find another,
Heart thats filled so full of love,
  as the heart of my mother!

With being really appropriate aptitude
She apprehend and never appraise
For she have appropriate ambition along us
She's got the ability and a tender to care

She can't rest knowing there's nothing filled our belly
However he rests, she can't rest assured knowing we starving
Her heart never fascinate her rest
Unlike him, he rest and never admire her adore on us

No father got affection counterpart her
The affliction she expirienced during birth never heal till death
No heart sustain such afflict, only her does
Even when we fault and fail her,

she bears the strength and effort to forgive and care for long
She prepares meal even when she got agony
Really, a mother's breast has got no sore
In her heart, love is exertion

But she never let go, she arouse and ply
She's dying to keep food on the table
It's affable, when usually it afflicts the affinity
But she never let go, she arouse and ply

She apprehend and never appraise
She affiliate with affectionate
And keep the spirit, arouse and ply
Just the tender of caring, arouse and ply
arouse and ply
She die loving, her love is unconditional.

You
You appeared
And made my fears turn into play
Nail mittens and a funny smell
You’re God’s giveaway

I didn’t know you could melt me so easily
I was stone until I held you squeamishly

You’re so shapeless
But I love you already
Your heart’s beating so fast
Faster than mine buddy
You’re just moving
I’m moving along with you
You’re just perfect
An awaited gift, that’s you

That’s you, that’s you, it’s all you, all you…

I want to sleep right next to you
I want to put my arms around you
I’m so tired, I want to close my eyes with you
Close yours first, I want you to know you’re safe 'coz I’m with you

You’ve only been here a short while
If I close my eyes before you shine a sleepy smile
I will miss it, and won’t know what’s next by your style…

I want to learn from you,
I want to sing to you,
Oh, I didn’t know you could melt me so easily
I was stone until I held you squeamishly

You’re so shapeless
But I love you already
Your heart’s beating so fast
Faster than mine buddy
You’re just moving
I’m moving along with you
You’re just perfect
An awaited gift, that’s you

That’s you, that’s you, it’s all you, all you…
