Mom - My Hero
By: Ashley Brundrett
age 13 - 1996
My mom is a hero in many ways
Always ready for the problems each day
She helps me get through difficult things
And supports in what each day brings
Every time that I am in sorrow
My mom is there with a tissue to borrow
If I need support in something I'm in
My mom is there yelling "Go, Fight, Win!"
I am thankful for the hero in my Mother
If I was asked I wouldn't want another
I always wanted to be like my Mother
By helping people's problems we are like each other
A better person I want to be
By watching my mom's kindness is how I see
Mom, if you are reading I want you to see
What you're doing in my life is so special to me
I want to be a better person because of you
Following your footsteps
I want to help people's lives too
You are very special and a fantastic mom too
When I have kids I want to be just like you
Then I would teach them like I was taught
Kindness is given and not bought
What you have given me in life is special indeed
You taught me not to be selfish, snooty,
Or filled with greed
I will carry this through and use it all the time
Because I know being rude is one's self crime
In conclusion to my poem
There are many things to state
You are a number one if I had to rate
Right now there is just one thing left to say
"Thank you Mother for your help
In the past and today."

Thank you Ashley for those words. I wish I could have read that poem to my mom and your grandmother, who is one of the best mom's and child of God I have even known. She is now is God's eternally kingdom with a big crown and wings so she can fly.
