This one's for MOM

mother's day is near that's why i went out to find a poem for mom to start this letter. i found quite a few but i ended up ignoring them. i thought if i want to say something it should be original. it should be from my heart. well this one is.
my mom has been in the states working for the past 3 years, it has'nt been that long unlike some moms who never had the chance to grow up their children. my mom did. hands on. she worked hand in hand with my father trying to explain things that my siblings and i did not understand at a young age. as a child, i remember she was quiet. we lived with my grandparents back then. she was the ever understanding woman i knew. she did not get tired of my father's flaws. instead she loved him very much. she works so hard for us. until now, she never gets tired.
teary eyed as i continue, i admit i was never really that close to my mom when she was here with us. shame on me. i laugh with her, get mad at her but i love her. and i love her more now.
my mother had to leave for the states when i was in my sophomore year in highschool, back then, i never really cared about her leaving. i was still the selfish, self-centered brat. not until i reached college. when i entered college it was then that i realized how much i am missing. i had regrets on showing less love and care than i could have. for that i am sorry. as i grow older i realize more and more how great a mother she is. no words can ever describe her and her love for us. she never gets tired. she never forsakes us. it is true that there is no best love given than that of a mother's.

uncomparable.

my mom is one great woman. strong and brave. that is what makes me love her more. i know the whole family does too. to my mom on mother's day, thank you. i know my thankyou's will never be enough but i hope it reaches your heart and makes it warm. i love you. we all do. Happy Mother's day.
