What is a Mother worth

I had to think and see

What my own Mother

Was worth to me

When I was a baby

Her smell held me near

And when I was a kid

Her voice I could hear

When I was a teen

I was left on my own

I guess she wanted me

To be all grown

But Momma had perfume

And big loving arms

To keep me so safe

From all horrible harms

But now I am grown

And I know what's her cost

Without my Mom

I might just be so lost

I look at my own two

As they too go through this phase

And soon they will realize

Mom's worth and her praise
