A Simple Thank You
Who wipes away the tears
as she calms my fears.
Whose hand can touch mine
and make me feel fine.
Time for you is rare;
a babe in need of your care.
I had so much to learn
for love, I did yearn.
Woke you up at night.
You held me tight.
Felt your presence nigh
when the fever rose up high.
Never did you give up
as I threw my cup.
The chores were double
so much trouble.
Kept me safe from harm.
I fell asleep in your arms.
A Thank You not enough
for her role is tough.
Would there be others
if no mothers;
with them we are blest,
a jewel above all the rest.
