For Being The Best Mother in the World

Done By: Her Son,Pream Anand Tharmalingam

On one night; the sky was filled with stars adorn,

An infant, who shone like a star herself, was born,

That infant was named Josephine Selome John,

Mother, since birth you contained a special kind of aura,

As a child you have gone through good and bad times,

Memories more breathe taking than mines,

Since I was born; you were who I would rely on,

Forever and always, from dusk till dawn,

Nothing compared to your strong soul and heart,

For even when smiling; tries to heal them both when been ripped apart,

You have always been standing tall and strong,

Even when things have been going bad for so long,

I admire you for everything you did for me and everyone around,

For a most honored role model was who I found,

When I had any questions you would give me the answer or humor,

You would give me choices and defend me from a rumor,

I would always give you a motivation and positive attitude for anything,

I would always be there for you for everything,

Because every time I'm feeling that I'm drifting off course,

You're my compass; You're my one true north,

Whenever I see you smiling; the stars always shine more bright,

Even if there is something wrong; one look and everything feels right,

It is truly a magical thing; so irresistibly strong,

How could anything at the moment possibly feel wrong?

I am sorry and apologize for all the things that I did not right,

I am still a kid to you and I may sometimes not be able to think straight,

Even for the most unforgivable you still take my hand,

And say that you forgive me and that you truly understand,

I thank you for making me the strong, smart, and independent man I am today,

And I want, from the bottom of my heart, to thank you in any way,

Even if you showed me the basics of surviving life; you allowed my friends to also be my guide,

But no matter what I know that you will always be there by my side,

I love your laugh, your presence, and trust on secrecy,

I love how I can tell you something and you protect it like a security,

Your laughter brings life at times of boredom,

It makes everyone's spirit like a wild mustang running with freedom,

I love your sense of humor at anytime and anyplace,

I love the way you get scared  and swear vulgar words everytime I scare you,

I love the way when you hid once in my closet to scare me,

You make me laugh so hard that I could almost die,

I always think about you and the pain that you suffer by the problems in your life,

I feel that it would be less painful if I was stabbed with a knife,

Whenever I see you being happy; I just have to shed a tear of joy,

Nothing can be compared from my feeling of pure happiness for you,

Having you as my birth mother makes me feel so SPECIAL,

For you are the unique person in my life that I have ever had,

There are a mere ten words that I must say before I am through,

You are the best mother, thanks, and I LOVE YOU! - Pream Anand
