I'm always here to listen
and I'll try hard not to judge.
I won't promise we won't disagree
but I will not hold a grudge.
Tell me all your fears
I'll be here to comfort you.
When your dreams are shattered,
I'll come running with the glue.
When you're feeling lonely
or need shelter from the storm,
you can always count on me
with arms to keep you warm.
I'll be here in the sad times
crying tears along with you.
We'll get through it all together
because that's what families do.
We all have friends in life
and confide in one another
but when the chips are down
you can rely on your mother.

crying tears with you.> crying tears along with you.
That suggestion for the line and the first verse I feel needs help with flow, other than that a very beautiful write. I make my suggestions based on what I feel when i read your work.

Lovely, touching and also a little bit sad.
"Tell me all your fears
I'll be there to comfort you.
When your dreams are shattered,
I'll come running with the glue."
I loved that stanza, very well expressed.
Take care and be well.

This is wonderful. I love the second stanza, do you think you could bring the glue my way sometime? Beautiful, heartfelt wirte. We all need a little help once and awhile. Lord knows my mother still gets my calls of distress and is still my shoulder to cry on.
You would make a wonderful mother I know.
Bes to you in the contest! -
This was excellent! Exactly what a mother would do, run with the glue to try and fix the problem. i thought this was a really sweet and touching poem. Loved it!

It's nice to see that some families actually hold to family values. Yes, we should be able to rely on family first, especially our mothers, but it's unfortunetly not always the case. This is a beautiful, heart-warming piece.

Very NIce!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is so true!

BEAUTIFUL!
AIN'T IT THE TRUTH! THANK YOU FOR CREATING SUCH A NICE WAY OF EXPLAINING IT TO OUR DAUGHTERS
-
Awesome job!
Very, very nice! It would be a wonderful thing if all the mothers and daughters in the world would unite and love one another as they should. The big wrench in the mix seems to be the men in their lives, for whatever reason. (Sorry guys) The competition between women is fierce, isn't it? Well, a great piece. Thank you for your efforts, good luck and I hope you win!! -
terrific
you can tell this is a real "conversation"
to your daughter
i like the personification
she's a lucky kid

This is fantastic! Full of love and hope! And I don't know of a mother anywhere that wouldn't "come running with the glue" This is fantastic! What a great write you share with us! Thanks!
-
This is a wonderful write. The ryhming was great. I wish I had a mother who was always there for me, in real life I mean not exactly a online mother. Sometimes the simplest things makes a daughter happy and fortunate to have a mother that cares about her so much and is always there with her, in good times and bad. Well done on this and best of luck in the contest. All4hugs

Great write. Good luck in the poetry contest. I like this poem. It flows and sounds good. I think its a beautiful peom, with much emotion. The last part is great. A girl really needs her mother, I am a guy, but i have sisters and can understand that. Good luck again.
-
This is a very good write that you had written here Rosemarie, thats what families are for, stick together in good times and bad, I agree with the last part a girl does need her mother at times. Your rhythm and rhyme flowed beautifully good luck in the contest sounds golden to me
-
I really like this poem. You really describe the positive things that a mother feels and does. This is beautiful. Good job.
-
So true!!!!!
Rosemarie, This is absolutely beautiful. We are not meant to judge anyone, that is for our maker. It is always good to have family there. I am very close with my family and even if we might disagree at times, you don't wrong anyone or you are answering to everyone. The rhythm and rhyme are outstanding and this flowed so softly. Words that definitely came from your heart. Your gift is evident in everything you write. Kudos for this masterpiece and thank you for sharing. Best wishes in the contest, it sounds golden to me. Keep that ink flowing. I'll leave you with a standing ovation to go along with my applause. Love and God bless, Joyce
