Dear Mama

My best teacher

Who can get in the way of a mother’s love?
It’s fierce and strong, yet as gentle as dove
In her heart you find wisdom, in it remains love
The amounts of tears she sheds for her children, it’s never enough
I know only from observation, and what I have seen
A Godly example of my mother, she is a queen
She stills knows how to guard me, most importantly how to pray
She knows when to listen and what to say
All because she doesn’t try to change me but accepts me as I am
Her love is like no one, and she calls me her friend
To say that I love her, would just simply not compare
To how fortunate I am, that her womb held me there
The true heartbeat of her example, simply shines through the dark
When she can’t speak or verbalize, she creates a spark
Its behind the scenes where her war wages on
She continues to fight with her faith, she is incredibly strong
I desire to be like her, to have faith like that or simply scratch the surface
For when eternity calls us home, we will know it was worth it
Worth every selfless act she continued to chose
To continue to pursue God, when she is unglued
Mom to say that I love you would never compare
Just thank you for always having my back, and covering me in prayer💜
