I was born the youngest child of seven.
First there was Dennis, Sharon, Brian and Kevin.
Then there was Charlotte who my mother had given birth.
Then John was born, given unto the earth.
Last comes me, the baby as my mother would say.
The apple of her eye, born in the month of may.
I have done my best to make her proud.
I love my mommy and I'll say it loud.
A woman who stared fear in the face and brought it to its knees.
She's climbed the highest mountains and brought down the largest trees.
Created us a life while sacrificing her own.
Did it with the grace of a saint and did it all alone.
I love my mommy and I'll say it with a loud voice.
I hope you all can hear it cause you don't have a darn choice.

Excellent!!!! This is a beautiful write, and it's so obvious that you love your mum very much. I can only wish that things go your way in life. Anyway, back to the poem. I think the way you could make this poem even better than what it already is, is to make sure ALL the lines start with a capital letter, rather than only some I like your style of writing, and I hope to read more soon! Keep up the good work!
All the best,
