Mother's Day poetry competition 2019 entry by Xaira Khan
We asked our readers to write a poem about why their mums are so special and what she means to them. Here is one of the entries. It has not been edited.
This Mother's Day, give your mum the gift of poetry to show her your love. [M]y mom is the best mom anyone could ever have.
[O]n a scale of 10 she exceeds it with no doubt.
[T]he love we have for each other is over the top,
[H]ere, let me tell you what she's all about.
[E]ver since the day she brought me to this world,
[R]aising me she knew wouldn't be an easy task.
[S]till she was committed and loves me so much,
[D]efinitely already knew that I didn't even need to ask.
[A]ll the things she has done for me, I can't put to words how much I am grateful for her.
[Y]ou are the light in my dark times, and I'll never forgot how much you sacrificed for me.
You mean the world to me, I Love You Mom!
