She's been my fort,
when I needed support.
She taught me to respect people
and to treat them all equal.
She always gave me advise,
when I needed some insight.
She taught me the value of education,
in this money-driven nation.
She taught me the discipline and strength,
to suceed at life's greatest length.
Basically, she guided my life,
and taught me wrong from right.
With all these values instilled upon me,
I plan to use it with proper authority,
by working hard and getting a degree,
so that she'll be proud of me.
I'm gonna thank her for getting me far,
by buying her a house and a new car.
But even if I didn't have the money,
I know that being the best man I can be,
would be, enough to make her happy.
I'll never abandon my mommy
because, she never abandoned me.
And I'll do anything for my mother
because, I really, really, love her.

Nathan
