Mother, you're the true definition of strength,
Bearing twelve children, each a precious length.
With the help of a midwife, you brought us to life,
For hospitals were too costly, causing financial strife.
Mother, the epitome of hard work and toil,
When father passed away, you refused to recoil.
You stood tall and raised us all, without fail,
Working tirelessly to put food on the table.
Mother, the embodiment of endurance and grace,
Though father drank, still showed him your embrace.
You endured his violence, hiding scars with a smile,
Protecting us from his wrath, going the extra mile.
Mother, you're the very essence of love's embrace,
Eldest to the youngest, you showered us with grace.
Extended your love to neighbours and strangers alike,
Teaching us to love our kin, spreading love's light.
Mother, you're the fulfilment of my deepest dreams,
I aspire to be as strong as you, bursting at the seams.
To love like you, with kindness and care,
Creating a big family, filled with love to share.
For, Mother, you are the epitome of grace,
A remarkable human in this earthly space.
I am forever grateful for your love's embrace,
And I'll emulate your example with unwavering pace.
Mother, you're the shining example I hope to become,
With your strength and love, I'll overcome.
I dance with joy in this life you've bestowed,
Emulating your goodness, a path I'll forever follow.
