The Mother of My Heart

"The Mother of My Heart"

(In celebration of Mothers Day, Sunday, May 10, 2009...

A poem dedicated to my Mum and to all the mothers out there)

For all that you have done for me

All I could give you back is love.
You bound my wounds I never see
And hopes and passions bound.

For I have nothing but your love

Your unmoved faith that shakes the ground.

And many times I made you frown

But your quiet spirit has never worn.

You raised me up to be so strong

And patient as I grew.

You sing for me, you comfort me

Understand me when no one can.

You are the mother of my heart

The one whose always been around

Who loved me till I turned to love

That I became the soul am now.

But then I love you first of all,

And thank for all you do.

It means you mean a lot to me

And that I honor you.

(Me and my Mum under the Maple tree - 1993)

Happy Mothers Day!
Mothers are God's special gift to us!
