I watch her, your mother,
Touch your arm.
I watch her
Circling round your space,
Never far..her smile ,her look upon your face.
You are mine.
Have ever been.
Before we were
we were in His scheme.
But she has never relinquished of her hold
And this I know
As we grow old
That you are her's.
And always will..
A mother's love ?
A wife's?
A son's?
You are hers  when all's said and done.
I move away and let her have  those secret thoughts of giving life
Of suckling lips,of  all the unknown aches and pains
As  she tucks you safe inside her once again.

I always say that when I ever get married, my mom is still the firt lady in my life  

I'm a mama's boy can't you tell

"So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this give life to thee."  W.S.
