In honor of my mother’s birthday, here is my “Ode to Mom”:
Moms come in all shapes, sizes and kinds;
if you knew my mom, though, you’d be jealous of mine.
She can cook up a storm, sing like a bird,
make you feel better without a single word.
She raised three girls and serves as a pastor’s wife,
giving selflessly has been the mark of her life.
I recognize now as her daughter and friend
the value of a good mother, which is why I have penned
this short little ode about how I am blessed
to be able to say on your birthday:
Mom, you are the best.
