Mother Of Mine
Oh, fated lady, you've truly seized my heart in a net,
Pat, pat, my tiny baby feet go,
I'm glad that we've met
Many underestimate your strength,
Will you scoff at such idiocy?
you will catch up to all and us, no matter the length
Gentle embraces that we all crave from you,
The field of life we all tread, say you'll love us till dead
Stomp, stomp, our feet follow each other
You're the mightiest bull, not a lamb of soft wool,
You've survived the hardships, watching over us for you don't want to miss
A game of hide and seek we mustn't play
You're a great wall, many can't seem to make you fall
BANG! BANG! They try but do not succeed
Yet a tenderness you have for us, is more than a tad
Your love is worth more, you spend it on us so we're never poor
We've got money, but our love costs more
Speaking of, you cherish us like a pirate with his riches,
CA-CHING! CA-CHING! It never runs out
You never let anyone twist our britches
I've been told, lacking love will leave you cold
Warm me up with your lively embrace
You've given me the richness of a mother's warmth and protection,
Yes, there is no need for correction
I fear that a goodbye must come, but even after departure,
The reaper may separate us from each other, sadly so
Our hearts will beat together loudly like a drum
Ba-dum! Ba-dum! There they go!
You're the bull of the arena and the riches of the world,
You are my universe and I pray that nothing will get worse

I spaced out each mini paragraphs twice because I felt that that would give it more room to ‘breathe’. For each second stanza, I made it not a rhyming sentence because I felt that there was a lot of rhyming going an and I felt that I needed to break it up so that it’s not like reading a rhyme story. The main message that’s being conveyed here is that I’m appreciating my mother, quite a lot. The reason is of course is that I hold her very close to my heart. I mean I appreciate my other family members too, but my mother means so much to me. For the stanza that reads, “She doesn’t want to miss” it means that she’s always keeping a close eye on all of us. It’s true when I say that she’s as tough as a bull, but she knows her ways around a joke or two. Funny thing, my mom’s zodiac is a Capricorn so it fits well enough. For the picture, I choose to take picture of my mom’s roses since she does like roses although orchids are her upmost favorite. Sadly, these roses are fake but beautiful nonetheless.
