STEEMIT POETRY CONTEST #10- My Mother

My mother, my friend so dear
Only person that is there
When no one else is near
Throughout the thick and thin
She doesn't give up even when I don't win

My mother, my gold
Carried me in her belly for nine months
Breastfed me for six months
I can always count on her strengths
Everytime am weak

My mother, always believed in me
When the world lost hope in me
When I am sad, she gives me courage and hope
When things fall apart, she teaches me to cope Who else can do that?

My mother, she puts me back on track
When I lose my way
She looks into my eye
When sickness me cry
I hope I shall reward your care

Dedicate this poem to my loving mother.
May you live long to eat the fruits of your labour
