MY ODE TO MAMA

You will always be my mother

Whom I can compare to no other

Carried me for nine months in your womb

And by God's Grace I didn't end up in a tomb

Like how a calf is catered for by the cow

You still care and cater for me up until now

What else can I do or say

But to thank you for everything you always do and say

A Strict disciplinarian you are

Turning green like an ogre
Whenever we flout any rule or order

And making sure that everything is in order
Honesty,Truthfulness, Respect among others are your hallmark

And you entreat each one of us to follow suit and not miss the mark

What else can I do or say

But to thank you for everything you always do and say

Went through thick and thin to put food on the table

Always praying to God to give you the strength to be able

To carry on till the last minute

For the sky is the limit

Not troubled by whatever came your way

What else can I do or say

But to thank you for everything you do and say
What else can I do or say

But to thank you for everything you always do and say

I say AYEKOO

I say AKPENAWO

I say MEDAASE

I say MERCIBEAUCOUP

I love you

And always will.

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!!
