My Mother's Love

A hand to hold, a hug to be given,

I need comfort.

Motivation and praise; spirits are lifted,

I need affection.

Scolding and opinions; thoughts are spoken,

I need criticism.

Delicious food, no more hunger; well appreciated,

I need fulfillment.

Tears and laughter like no other;

a friendship that will never end,

I need my mother.
