For me, you’re just perfectly right.

When they say stars glitter in the dark,

For me, your love for us always spark.

Patience you have, toiled much sacrifices,

To us whom you dearly love, define you the nicest.

You patieltly travelled to a distant place,

Looking for a pasture, truly it’s a good maze.

Exerting all your best not for you, but for our benefit,

Wholeheartedly grasp in our own challenging feat.

How amazing you are, our beautiful mother dear,

We just wanna adore you and give sweet tender.

Your life speaks of God’s bountiful blessing,

You served Him with gladness in  wonderful echoing.

Mom, Happy Mother’s Day!

Praying you with love and in sweet hurray.

Thank you for being an astounding mother,

You’re really the best-yesterday, today and forever.

(This piece is sweetly dedicated to my mom who passed away because of cancer. We love you Nanang!)
