Happy Birthday

This day comes arround once a year,
So I wrote a poem for today.
For my fifty year old mother dear.
The things I've meant to say.

Thank you,
For holding my hand and showing me the way.
Thank you,
For making me who I am today.
Thank you,
For answering my queries when I was small.
Thank you,
For helping me up every time I fall.
Thank you,
Letting me grow up on my own.
Thank you,
For making sure I'm never alone.
Thank you,
For being patient when I was mad.
Thank you,
For being cheery when I was sad.
Thank you,
For making me smile.
Although you're annoying once in a while.

Without you I couldn't have come this far.
So thank you for being the mother that you are.
I hope you always remain this way,
And Ma, have a happy birthday.
