Mother Dearest

Mother Dearest,
I love you.

You have always shown me the right way,
Always acted your word,
Never made your love a burden,
Never made me prove my worth.

Mother Dearest,
I love you.

Even when my life was in the dirt,

Love came freely of thee,

And you will never let me take the easy route,

Because you will never doubt me.

 

Mother Dearest,
I love you.

Even after Dad left home,
You still gave percent one-hundred one,
And me and my brothers never felt alone,
In your eyes, we'll always be the greatest sons.

 

Mother Dearest,
I love you.

 

All my life I saw you as the greatest mother figure,

A young man can ever have,

Because you showed me love and life,

In a way that no normal human ever can.

 

Mother Dearest,

I love you.

    This is really a sweet dedication to your mother. I, personally, don't care for the title. it reminded me of the movie "mommy dearest" where mom was not so great, but the poem was really nice. thanks for entering

    A sweet poem. Mothers can be wonderful. They are the first person to ever show us love. When they are good mothers there is none above them. Thanks for sharing.

    I encourage you to keep writing to read and comment.

    God Bless

    I guess mothers need more thanks like this piece you have written.
    "Never made your love a burden" - I think that is one of the best things someone can do for those they love. Especially mothers...
    Good luck in the contest
