M is for mothers the whole world over

M is for mothers the whole world over,

Balancing so many things on their shoulders. 

Expectations, gatherings, creating a dream

Legends for making things not what they seem. 

Did we ever say “thankyou”?

Did we ever think

That they might have preferred 

To not be at the sink? 

So, look after the ones who mother us so fiercely –

Give them a hug

Say you love them dearly.
