In the Name of the Mother

Make your Mother Proud

Her mother took her and her siblings

To school every day, with their bags,

Their food, books, games, and other things.

She was there for all her sports,

She was there for all her concerts,

She was there for life’s joys and its hurts.

Her mother was by her side, as her first child was born,

She sat up with her through the night till dawn.

She never complained through her illness,

Her tough moments, her tears and her pain,

She knew that she would never see her mother again.

In the name of your mother make her proud,

And always sing her praises out aloud.

At school, he looked forward to seeing his mother at lunch,

The best food Mum prepared lovingly for her son,

She was beside him whether he lost or won.

She was there for all the tough moments in life,

In times of happiness, failures, joy, and strife.

It was a day filled with sadness when he got the news,

That his mother passed away as she lay asleep,

In a diabetic coma that was so silent, sad, and deep.

He had lost his mother and his best friend,

He thought the sadness and the pain would never end.

In the name of your mother make her proud,

And always sing her praises out aloud.

If you are blessed to have your Mother beside you today,

Make the time and the effort to spoil her in every way,

With love, gifts, and a bouquet of flowers,

Make her know that you love her every hour.

If your mother is loving, caring, and kind,

Take care of her and give her peace of mind.

In the name of your mother make her proud,

And always sing her praises out aloud.
