Love Between a Mother and Daughter: My Best Friend Forever



My best friend forever? That's my mother.
How could it ever be any other?
Who conceived me, brought me to this earth,
Awakened in me hopes and dreams, gave birth?
If ever I knew one as there for me,
Of course, it was the mother I could see.
The one who held me so close at her breast,
And snuggled me in bed, so I would rest.
Who waited, watched o'er me, when I was ill
And took the time my mem'ry bank to fill,
With sweet love, hope and values e'er supreme
And planted deep within me some new dream?
Who guided my small hands along the way
And took the time to teach me how to play
The games of life and taught me values true,
As Godly mothers e'er are blessed to do?
Who talked with me and walked me on my path
Of life and even through war's aftermath?
Who kept me in her heart and loved me though
So many others too, were meant to grow?
The love a mother gives will never die.
My best friend was my mother; that's no lie.


A daughter recognizes the important role her mother played in her early years.
