Here for me when I am ill...
Stands up for me when others don't.
Needs me more than life itself,
Loves me just the same.

Cares when I am about to cry...
dries my eyes when I do.
Hears my dreams and wishes,
Never saying I can't fufill them.

Being around isn't in the job description...
It's just something that's a given.
Tries so hard to understand me,
No matter how difficult the feat.

I love her more than life itself,
and need her just the same.
I'd take care of her when she is ill,
I'll back her up when others shoot her down.

She is here for me,
I'll be there for her.
She is my mother...
and there will never be another, that is more special in my life.

* for my mommy...

Jenn, as a mom, I can tell you this is wonderful. Made me cry! Good job! May I suggest you submit it to the main site at Passions? Let me know if you need help doing that.

I bet your mother loved seeing this (you did show it to her, right?). This is such a nice poem!

This was a wonderful poem about your mother. If you didn't show it to her then i urge you to. Mothers love stuff like that!

Thank you all for your replies! I haven't been in here for a while.... got some stuff I've been sorting through at the moment...
But I figured I wanted to make this my first poem coming back. Yes, I did show my mother, and she was very happy to read it. Thanks again to everyone!

Aww Jenn, this is so touching. *sniff*
You've certainly got a way with the beautiful words.

Thanks for sharing this. It's going to my library.
