You gave me life
even though it hurt.
You watched me grow
despite my protest.
You were there when
I was extra ill.
You were there eve when
I broke my arms.
You were there
to teach me right
from wrong.
You taught me to
be strong despite the
pain that I felt.
You were my friend
when I was in need.
Now I have put through
more pain than I can bare.
The tears are no longer
yours but mine.
Don't you fear
I will be there.
Though I lost
my grandma and
grandpa; you helped
me shed my pain.
Now I cry with
you in my heart.
I pray for you despite
the protests that I get.
You were my first true
love and will always
be my first love.
I love you with
the heat of a lion.

It's a beautiful right ~ as a mom ~ I can tell you ~ the only way you can really give your mom pain is by turning away from her ~ or hurting yourself ~ all the rest can be resolved ~ or improved ~ I luv my daughter with all my heart ~ there isn't anything she can do to hurt me ~ other than not luv me ~ this is a beautiful write ~ a couple of spelling mistakes ~ but I figured it out ~
Thanks so much for entering the "Set the bar" contest ~ I do appreciate you sharing your work with me ~ Best of luck to you! -
I like this poem. though I do need to let you know that there are several spelling errors. I suggest that you go back and use spell check that will fix the errors.
good luck in the contest.
