MOTHER

For nine long months

I bubbled in your womb

You endured a lot of pain

All because of me

You carried a burden

Of raising me.

Thank you so much

For loving me

For not aborting me

For not throwing me on a rubbish skip

Like some harsh parents

Who do not have feelings.

Oh mother, you’re an angel.

You’re the glamorous spirit of our home

The charm of your love is there

One knows the joy of your presence

And your ever tender care.

I will always thank God

For a mother

Whose Christian love and grace

Made our precious little home

Such a happy place.

You’re without doubt, certainly,

Definitely and abso-flippin’-lutely

The best mum of all time.

Thank you for all your

Love, care and support.

You will always be

The world’s greatest.
