Mother, you are the most important person in my life, <br />Often I fail to speak my feelings, <br />I am of the age where one keeps ones feelings inside themselves, <br />But doubtless, my feelings are still the same, <br />Mother you mean more to me than riches and gold. <br /> <br />The love that I feel for you is immense, <br />It cannot be snuffed out by a gentle wind, <br />A mighty hurricane could not flicker the flame of my love, <br />My love for you will eternally burn deeper than any love, <br />Mother you mean more to me than the Earth and stars. <br /> <br />Mother, you are the one and only true rock in my life, <br />If I am ever seeking salvation, I know your arms are open, <br />I can always count on you to give your best,110%, <br />Even if it is not often returned, it is still deeply felt, <br />Mother you mean more to me than diamonds and gems. <br /> <br />There is nothing I wouldn’t give to you, <br />I would sacrifice everything I have for you, and you alone, <br />If I would have my way, I would see you are cared for in all possible ways, <br />Never do I want to see you shed a tear or cry, unless you weep tears of joy, <br />Mother you mean more to me than pearls and rubies. <br /> <br />Mother, do you realise how much you mean to me, <br />I love you dearly, far more than I can express, <br />I cannot imagine my life without you, <br />Be proud with the knowledge that you are the pillar of my life, <br />Mother you mean more to me than sapphires and emeralds. <br /> <br />You are forever the beacon in my life, <br />Through the darkness you light the way, <br />Always lifting me up and picking up the pieces, <br />My love to you radiates stronger than any other, <br />Mother you mean more to me than the heavens, Earth, and beyond, <br />Nothing mother, nothing is greater to me than my love for you. <br /> <br />***<br /><br />Jimmy Watkinson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mother-17/
