Who were you
before the first snow fell?
You were a
woman,
a daughter,
a sister
What were you
before the first flower bloomed?
You were a
student,
a worker,
a friend
And then you became a mother
You were all these things,
but most importantly you became a
mother,
my mother,
our mother
You gave us everything
You still do
Because no matter what you were
no matter what you have or may become
you will always be
Mom
