Poetry
You brought me into this world
I am your very own.
The first people whom I saw
When I opened my eyes on this earth.
My fingers clutched at your hands
Woven tightly in its gentle fold.
My heart recognized your voice
As I struggled to get used to the earthly environment.
You helped me take my first steps
Taught me my first words
Raised me up with love and care.
You smiled when I smiled
And cried when I was in pain.
You rejoiced at my success
Encouraged me when I needed help.
You drew me into a loving relationship with God
Inspired me by your own divine life.
My cocoon of security and safety
In whom I could confide all my fears.
My best role models
In whose footsteps I always strive to follow.
I know I will never grow old in your eyes
I shall forever be your little girl
The one you cradled lovingly in your arms.
Parents are God’s special guardians
Given to us on earth.
They give their all to us
Expecting nothing in return but our love.
They shelter and protect us from harm
Their selfless sacrifice a wonderful example.
They bless us with the very hand of God.
To my Mother on earth
Your beautiful heart a precious gift.
To my Father who blesses me daily from above
Your unforgettable love a priceless remembrance.
What I am today I owe it to you both.
