Dear Mother

A poem I wrote both as a Mother's Day present and also to earn extra credit in English! :]

                                              Dear Mother

              With open arms, you came along and brought her in world
                  Above all else God chose you to raise this little girl
                    She grew and grew still you remain the only one
                    Who made her stronger than she could ever be
                  And shown her everything that she could ever see
              While Mother's Day means gifts of corny cards and jewlery
          She gives you this, her thoughts to words of what you mean to her
                  No pearls of white to compensate for days and nights
                                  You've been here by her side
          While bad days led to sleepless nights you held her while she cried
                So while a day for mothers means more to you than she
                                    Happy Mother's Day, Mom
                                          To you, from me
                                                    [♥]
