My Mother

My Mother

My mother was in the kitchen baking cookies

My heart drifted in on the fragrance

And wrapped around her

She may not have noticed

As I stood in the doorway telling her how much I loved her

But maybe one day she'll know

That I love her more than anything

As she was standing there

I prayed for her safety and her life-

And when my heart cried

She was always there for me- loving me,

Praying for me, thanking me, praising me-

You may have many friends

But you only have one mother-

I love you mum
