The bond between a mother and a child
one so special and sweet
The bond between the one who gave so much
and the little one like me
I know my mom went through hard times
times that were probably my fault
but she still stuck with me
she stuck with me through it all
no matter what life may bring us,
it can never separate
the bond that I share with my mother
all those nights so late
all those crazy busy days
rushing around doing crazy things
my few words of hate
and yours of love
when we’d finally make up
and I’d have to admit
you were always right
It will never separate
the bond that I share with my mother
the times that you’ve given me a back rub
when all you wanted was a nap
or the times that for my birthday
you gave me a giant expensive map
because you knew me so much better
than everyone else
and no matter what was bothering me
you figured out the best way to help
No matter what happens
it will never separate
the bond that I share with my mother
all those times that I questioned
who I really was
you’d show me that God was the answer
From your example through
all that life threw your way
you taught me to come to the alter
to surrender to God
like you always did
and now I know I can make it
and that no matter what happens
nothing can separate
the bond that I share with my mother
you’ve taught me so much
and I’m glad that I have
more time left before I leave for life’s call
but whenever I do
I’ll be ready to
because of what you’ve shown me through it all
and when I someday have my own kids
I’m sure every day you’ll get a call
“Mom, I don’t know how you did it”
But from what you have and will tell me
I hope that one day
my child will say
nothing will ever separate
the bond that I share with my mother
just like I’m saying
Mom, I love you.
And no matter what comes my way
Nothing will EVER EVER separate
the bond that I share with my mother
Aww this is beautiful π

Thanks so much, Savannah! π I have another story/poem coming tomorrow!!
Just so you know, the best way for me to get inspired to write and into the flow of writing pretty poetry is to read your blog for a while, and then I start writing! That’s what I did with “Standing in the Rain”, the one I’m posting tomorrow.. π So, thanks for always inspiring me with your stories and writings! π

No problem!!! It is TOTALLY true! I LOVE your writing so much! π You are the best poet I know! And just about the only one I can think of that I actually like reading!! π I never wanted to write any poetry, because I didn’t like it that much, but then after reading yours, I grew a love for it!
