Mother
Dear Mother,
You have raised me like no other.
The sacrifices you made,
The consequences you paid,
It was all worth your while,
For you have raised a strong child.
Dear Mother,
You have loved me like no other.
Your unconditional love,
Which is as beautiful as the whitest dove,
And carries me in a big huge glove,
Makes you truly a blessing from above.
Dear Mother,
You have faith in me like no other.
Every day I hope to make you proud,
As I pray up to the cloud,
Please God, make my mother shout aloud,
"I believe in you, Matthew, make me proud."
Dear Mother,
You have made my life that much easier.
I hope you know that you are a stealer,
For you steal my pain, sorrow, grief, and fever.
Grandma would have been proud of you, Mom,
For she gives you strength, and makes you strong.
Dear Mother,
I love you.
