Courage

There’s nothing above a mother’s love

There’s nothing greater than a mother’s a touch

Every lesson you taught me

is etched in my soul

My inner glow can never darken

You helped me up every time I’ve fallen

Your hugs are the medicine

for my aching heart

I heard your voice in my head

all the times I was lost

You helped me believe

you showed me to the cross

You taught me how to forgive

all the people that hurt me

You’ve been my greatest gift

since the day that you birthed me

How did I get so lucky

to call you mommy?

Laura May, but call you Tammy

after Tommy

Your sacrifices

built the road beneath my feet

Thank you for being my rock

my eternal support

You was only 17

you could have hit the abort

Instead, you gave life

and in return, I give you peace

It’s forever, you and me

until eternity

Dear mama

 

A rare love

you taught me to share love

And never to fear love

just to listen and hear love

Only with the heart

you can feel love

Ever since my first breath

you made me feel loved

Nobody on this planet

can love you like a mother

Don’t ever take her for granted

there really is no other

Your love, a beacon

guiding me through the dark

In my life time

you’ve left a greatest mark

Your love has been my Ark

when I needed a shelter

 

a flood of emotions

when my dad left us

Left us feeling helpless

since than it’s been just us

That’s always been enough

They can try

But they will never tear us apart

You was only 17

you could have hit the abort

Instead, you gave me life

and in return, I gave you peace.

It’s forever, you and me, until eternity.

Dear mama

I’m so proud to be your son

Tammy Bowman my mother 1 of 1

You gave me a platform

And look what I’ve become

I watch you put a rose

On top of my fathers casket

The joy in your face

Erased all the sadness

You made me feel whole

When my world shattered

We shed tears of joy

followed by laughter

Unconditional loved

You Make me feel

Like mattered
