Thanks is not enough

EVERYDAY SHOULD BE MOTHER'S DAY,
BY THE GRACE OF GOD BE THANKFUL YOU HAVE A MOTHER WHO SACRIFICED SO YOU COULD HAVE A BETTER DAY,
BESIDES THE LOVE OF GOD , NO OTHER LOVE IS STRONGER,
DON'T BE SO DOWN IF ON THIS EARTH YOUR MOTHER DIDN'T LIVE LONGER,

IF YOUR A MOTHER SHE LIVES THROUGH YOU,ONLY HER BODY REST BELOW THE EARTH,
THE TEACHING'S YOU OBTAIN WHILE GROWING UP FROM MOM IS WHAT'S OF WORTH,

ALL OF US GOT TO REST,TO LEAVE THIS EARTH AND TAKE THEIR SLEEP,
BUT THE SPRIT OF MOM WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU,HER OR EVEN ME,
SO THANKS FOR MAKING ME CONFIDENT IN WHO I AM AND CAN BE,

TO NOT TAKE THINGS FOR GRANTED EVERYDAY TO GIVE MY ALL,
DON'T PAY ATTENTION HOW DEEP THE HOLE OR HIGH THE WALL,
MOM YOU LET ME KNOW THROUGH GOD,I COULD CAPTURE HE STARS,
THROUGH GOD,I'M FREE EVEN IF I AM LOCKED BEHIND BARS,

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO ALL THE MOMS FROM ONE WHO KNOWS,
YALL ARE THE BACK BONES OF OUR LIVES NO MATTER HOW ROUGH THE ROADS,
THANK YOU FOR THE MOMS WHO TEND TO WORRY MORE THAN THE DADS,
GOD PLEASE SOOTHE THE HEARTS OF THE PEOPLE WHO'S MOM'S ALREADY PASSED,

MOM AIN'T NO WHERE FAR,IN FACT SHE STILL LIVES TODAY,
EVERYTIME YOU LOOK IN THE MIRROR,YOUR WAYS,AND THINGS YOU SAY,
MOM IS WITH YOU STILL AS THE MEMORIES WILL NEVER FADE,
GOD BLESS ALL THE BEAUTIFUL MOM ON MOTHER'S DAY,

THE DEDICATION A MOTHER PUTS FORTH SEEING BOUT US WHEN WE SICK LATE AT NIGHT,
THE COURAGE A MOTHER SHOWS TO BARE THE PAIN AND GIVE US LIFE,
THANK YOU GOD FOR THE MOMS WHO ARE DADS YOUR NOT ALONE,
MOMS KEEP YOUR HEADS UP EVEN IF THE DAD IS GONE,
GOD GOT YOUR BACK, GOD THE FOUNDATION SO MOVE ON,
THANK YOU GOD FOR BLESSING ME TO WRITE THIS MOTHERS DAY POEM,
AMEN.
