Whenever I am in need
She rubs my head
To make me feel at ease
Her smile melts my heart
Her eyes make me smile
I love the way she loves
The way she makes someone feel
She puts everyone in front of herself
Her health is not in good condition
Yet she's so full of life
She is all she needs to be
And more then you can see
She will put a smile on your face
The second she walks through the door
She hugs you with all her might
Not wanting to let go
If you knew the woman
That I am describing
You would love her to pieces
She puts so much of herself
Into someone else
She loves with all her might
And never anything less
This person; My mother

"Her health is not in good condition
Yet she's so full of life"
I love that line - it's a contradiction, but still I know what you mean. Being full of life has nothing to do with health. It's the spirit of a person, and I love how you put that together.
One thing. In the line:
"And more then you can see"
It should be "than" and not "then" -
This is beautiful and a wonderful tribute to your mother. Well done. You had me in tears, so much love poured into this write. Good luck.

Well written, heartfelt and emotional piece that is easy to read and understand. Flows well and universal topic.

I really like this
You use such simple everyday words and ideas to produce a very moving poem. I like the line "she is all that she needs to be and more than you can see".
As you are a poetess I know you will be strong for her.

Very powerful. Only one error, but it's so miniscule it doesn't detract from the poem. Thanks for sharing, and best wishes to your mom.
