Mother

The person I love so dearly,

The one who takes good care of me;

Who makes sure I'm fine, night and day,

And thinks of me when I'm away.

Though she has without a life partner,

"Cause we lost father earlier;

She strives to give us a shelter,

Where she keeps us safe together.

Sometimes I see tears in her eyes,

As she looks up into the skies;

Over many trials she grieves,

Yet to the Lord she firmly cleaves.

Nothing can efface forever,

The love and warmth of a mother;

Of all the gifts God gave to me,

The greatest of them all is she.

In my heart, specially I hold,

More precious than jewels of gold;

"Mother"_fountain of love untold,

My peerless treasure in this world.
