To A Mother
A poem to my wife on Mother's Day
Haven’t
got time to go to the shops,
(if
I did, you’d only give it away) !
So
it’s time for one of those “dreadful” poems,
to
send my love on this your Mother’s Day.
I
just wanted you to know,
How
incredibly proud of you I am,
You
are the strength in this marriage,
Without
you, my life would be a sham.
You’ve
borne me four beautiful children,
A
gift from the Gods above,
They
are the magic of life personified,
They
are a wonderful vision of my love.
For
36 (very) long months,
You’ve
carried them safely within,
You’ve
given them such a great start,
But
there’s more…where do I begin?
You
feed them, guide them,
Clothe
them, and oh so much more,
You
give them your Mother’s love,
A
love that is everlasting for evermore.
Because
you look out for them,
On
every, every single day,
You’re
one of the best mothers in the world,
What
more is there left to say?
Apart
from: I love you now more than ever,
And
I sincerely hope that we never part,
Because
you have cemented my love,
You
have simply encapsulated my heart.
All
my love - Allen Jesson J
