It’s dark, I’m alone, chin to knees, I closed my eyes

Clasped my hands with nothing to hold but to feel my own skin

All I hear is the beating of a drum underneath my ribs

Electrical signals rushed to and fro of my brain with nothing to think, but oblivion

6570 hours you carried I with no complains, no buts, no doubts

Until a hand unknown to my consciousness reached out to caress me

Breath in, breath out, now I’m out to see the world outside your womb

Then I heard another beating of a drum, it’s yours, and now I feel I belong

You are the sunshine amidst storm, the rain after a long drought, the wind that calms us all

You are the blessing I can’t thank God enough, for showing me the world with your embrace

Forgiven me countless times, loved me despite imperfections, took care of me apart or not

You are my melody, my guide, my sun that gives meaning to my life

In every prayer I whisper to God, I’ll always say your name and thank Him for you

You are the most beautiful creature ever created

Loving, thoughtful, caring, long-suffering, patient, understanding, generous

All I hope is a long healthy life for you mama

I’ll look forward to the day I can proudly show you the fruits of cultivating us with God in our lives

Happy Mother’s Day! Will always love you no matter what
