Mother’s Day Ode

Miles Mitchell

Dear Mom,

Thank You

For helping me through 

Football and the school year.

You are a strong, independent 

Woman, I thank God 

You’re still here.

Thank you for 

Sacrificing and caring 

Every single day

For always being there

And always knowing 

What to say

Thank you for

Your positive attitude

Through the good times and bad

Somehow you find a way

 To be both a mom and a dad

Thank you for being you.

Your job is never done

I need to be a better son

For my mom. 

Because like everyone else,

You only get one
