For All Mothers
A poem for all mothers
Mother
The first one to look
Into your eyes
With the sparkle of pure love
Mother
Mother
The first to call you
By name
Into
A world of love
Mother
Mother
The one who gives
All
To take care of her beloved
For whom she gave all
To love
Mother
Mommy
One who always
Calls back
After even
The slightest cry
Mommy
Mama
The first to teach and
The first to learn
Of the joys you bring
To the world
Mama
Mother
Always there
Always aware
And open
To guide and support
For anything
Mother
A friend
A supporter
A comforter
A giver
A lover
A mother
