Post & Short poem for mum

(I know this is posted in 'love and sex', it was an accident and I'm not sure if how to change it😂)

Today I learned how lucky I am to have such an amazing mother who loves me how mine does. I am so very greatful for her, a young girl at my school (18) is very close to becoming homeless. Her parents live away and she is being evicted. I don't know this girl very well but as soon as I told my mum about the situation, she insisted we took her in and went straight down to speak to my principal. She's an inspiration, a strong women who will go out of her way to raise young girls as strong women too.

With 4 daughters herself she has taught us exactly how we should respect ourselves and what we should do to help others. I'm awfully glad to have a woman to look up to like her.

Poem

your 4 delicate flowers,

needed shelter, food, water and love to grow.

you sew our seeds and as you watched us blossom, you took the roots of a flower struggling to cope and added them to our flower bed.

this lesson will stay with me forever.

- mother, thank you.
