Ode to My Madre

My mom is the best

She is better then the rest

She didn't throw me away

When I was a colic-y bebe

And as if that weren't enough

She put up with lots of other stuff

Like my pre-teen crying, whining phase

That sadly lasted more than a few days

And then when I thought I was too old, 

to have to do what I was told.

She still loved me anyway

And didn't try to sell me on Ebay.

My mom cooked all kinds of yummy dishes

That exceeded all her kids wishes

Like that time on April Fools

when she broke all the dinner rules

And gave us a plate of 'frozen' peas

And she laughed at all our pleas

Until we came to see

that they were really candies!

My mom is fun and silly

And reminds of a calle lily

(cuz she is really pretty.)

 

Another thing I like to remember

is going shopping in September

Always right before school would start

We'd go shopping all day (for the most part)

I got to be with my mom all alone

(Before we both had a cellular phone.)

After my school supplies were complete,

She would always take me out to eat!

You might not know this about my mom

Cuz she's almost always very calm,

But she runs a rental business from home

Even came up with the idea on her own.

She is the smartest woman I know,

I can't help but think 'whoa' 

When I think of all that she had done,

Raising a boy, two girls and another son.

She recently got her bachelors degree,

I think all of her kids would have to agree

That she's the best mom we have ever had

One day when I'm a mom, and Matt's a dad.

I hope I can be just like Michelle Marie,

Whose the best mom I guarantee!

So thanks mom for being so great,

I hope your kindness is a genetic trait. 

I had to put this poem on display,

Because I wanted something to convey

Out of all the mothers in the U.S. of A.

I hope you have a wonderful Mothers Day!
