Her children's needs, her inner voice,
Putting them first, she does not smother,
This makes her a mother.

Guidance in life's winding ways,
Teaching values through all days,
Her wisdom shared, like no other,
This makes her a mother.

Protection strong, a steadfast shield,
From harm's way, her love revealed,
A safe embrace, none can bother,
This makes her a mother.

Patience vast, through storm and sun,
Understanding, never done,
In trials, she won't uncouple,

Encouraging through words and deeds,
Her faith in us, a steady buffer,

Long-term goals she plans with care,
For family’s future, always there,
A path to success, she’ll uncover,

She protests wrongs, stands firm and true,
Defends what's right in all she’ll do,
Her voice is just, it won't be smothered,

Loyalty strong, in love and vow,
Beside her partner, through each row,
Her faithfulness like no other,
