A Mother's Love
She was the supreme queen of the household
Her worth to me was much more than gold
She nursed and took care of me from small
My debt to her I can't repay at all
Though she had no schooling to read and write
In the school of life she was very bright
She was there for me throughout my childhood
Always urging me to do what was good
Some things with her, I did take for granted
Now I wish such things I never did
She always sought to give me of her best
Now she has gone to her final rest
I know that there are many others
With similar tales of their mothers
You can search far and wide and up above
There's no other love like a mother's love
Dedicated to my mother
and to all mothers everywhere
