My Birthday Poem for my Mummy

Cherished pictures in my eyes
She stand erect her head upheld
Looking at the clear blue skies
Her arms upheld and stretched up high
Like a willow in the summer breeze,
'B e a u t i f u l', I hear her cries
Clear and loud as bells that peel.

Cherished pictures in my mind,
We sit in bed side by side
She tells me stories o her past
And reads me letters of her youth
The words flow softly
Some with joy and some with grief
Like a poets tales of days gone by.

Cherished pictures in my heart
Of Christmas nights and Easter days
And all the joys at my Birthdays
Of bedtime kisses and happy morns
With her embraces sweet and warm.

Cherished notions in my thoughts
She is strong as a mountain
She is fragile as a flower
She can change her course
Like a bird in flight
And paint her moods
From the chill of a winters night
To the warmth of the summer sun

Cherished words from deep inside
It is my Mummy of whom I speak
The one I love with all my heart
And every day I say the Prayer
Thank you God that I am hers
And keep her with me for many years.
