    Poem Commentary

    The lyrics to a song I wrote for my mom last christmas. I hope this speaks for children everywhere.

    A Tribute to my Mom

     Mom I love you because you understand,
    When I'm caught in the whirlwind, you hold onto my hand,
    And I can't count the tight spots you've gotten me through,
    You've always said you loved me and Mom,
    I love you too.

    Although my every emotion becomes confusing,
    Despite all my rejections, it's your advice I'm using,
    And you know I want to grow up and be just like you,
    You've always said you loved me, and mom,
    I love you too.

    Twelve years of teaching have driven me insane,
    But they've also saved me, guess who gets the blame,
    And no matter what I say when this song is through...
    You've always said you loved me, and Mom



    I love you too.

    Thanks! My mom certainly seemed to enjoy it.

    Poetry is what gets lost in translation.
