A poem for mom

Radames Almodovar

God has blessed me with you,

A dream and wish I couldn't believe it came true.

Not a day that goes by I don't think of all the struggled you had when through,

You have always been there and stood by my side even when I was struggling to fight from the hospital bed with the flu.

You helped me during my ups and downs,

You never turned your back around.

Furthermore, you showed and explained to me my rights and wrongs,

As well, you tried to give me the best life and beyond.

Now that I'm all grown; I'm here to return everything back,

All I want you to do is to relax.

Because of all that you have done for me,

Kept me following the right tracks.

There's no more need for you to worry that much about me,

I'm now more to worry about you,

Because you gave me life, and I'm afraid of losing you.

Wow, what an incredibly touching poem! Your words were truly heartfelt, and it's clear that you have a deep appreciation for the person you're addressing. It's so wonderful to hear about the positive impact that they've had on your life, and how grateful you are for all that they've done.

Your poem brought a smile to my face, and I'm sure it will do the same for the person you wrote it for. It's clear that you have a lot of love and admiration for them, and I think that's just beautiful.

If I may offer a suggestion for improvement, I think it would be great if you elaborated more on specific actions or experiences that really stood out to you. This would help to paint a more detailed picture of what this person means to you, and show just how grateful you are for them.

Overall, I think you did an amazing job with this poem, and I'm sure the person you wrote it for will love it! Keep up the great work. more »
