When you were born
the heaven rejoice and each angel blew one’s horn
I was so excited
without a shadow of a doubt, I was delighted
I have loved you
from the moment I held and saw you
Words failed me
as I held you tenderly
My eyes softened
whenever you missed my warmth every so often
My soothing coo
never failed to calm you
Growing up, you gave me so much joy
my sweet and loving boy
I’m proud to be called your mommy
my forever baby
When the world will put you down
for you, I’ll be standing my ground
I’ll be your anchor
constantly supporting even at the stormiest weather
Never think for a minute
you have a debt to repay, this I repute
All will become apparent
once you become a parent
Keep in mind
you’re one of a kind
I have been blessed
not cursed
You’ve grown to be a good man
done the right thing in raising you the best I can
My motherhood is complete
I’ll do it over again in a heartbeat
This poem was inspired by Bible Blogger’s poem titled ” How can I repay you mom?

Very poignant and beautiful, Winnie. It’s definitely apparent that you are a parent….really like this! I was also touched by how you so obviously love words……yet were at a loss for words. I can relate. Just when you think you cannot possibly love your child more……you do!

“Never think for a minute
you have a debt to repay, this I repute”..this line hit me the most…for most Asian family..children are some sort of investment (with all due respect)…children are expected to serve and sort of repay their parents….

So very true! It’s bad practice for parents especially in our country to lay the future in their children’s hands. My husband and I are breaking that. We are saving for our nest egg so we don’t rely on our children when we become old. Though they told us they will take care of us. 😉
