MAMA

That twinkle in your eye
Your hearty laughter
The strict demeanor
Your tough exterior
The proud walk
Those elegant clothes
Those chocolate rum balls
Yes, the pineapple upside down cake too
That lecture about homework
The need to discipline
The quest for perfection
Right china and cutlery
Your wish for me to be betrothed
Your unwavering affection
That meaningful scrutiny
You guard me like a lioness does its cubs
Protected me with your wisdom
Cherished me with your unconditional love
Mama, love you right back!
