To Every Mother
This is for the women
Who showed us the way
Who made us a snack after school every day
The ladies that love us
Through worst and the best
The ones strong and lovely with whom we've been blessed
The women that smiled
When we brought dandelions home
That pointed a direction, but let us roam
The females with callused hands
Hardworking and gentle
Minds always open, never judgmental
The women who held us
Dear to their hearts
Who would never let anything tear us apart
The ladies that kissed us
When our knees started to bleed
Showing us family is all that we need
This is for the mother's, the mommy's, ma's, madre's and mum's
The ones that have shaped us into what we've become
