For Her

For Her is a heartfelt poem dedicated to mothers everywhere. It reflects on unconditional love, protection and gratitude through simple yet evocative imagery that celebrates the timeless bond between a mother and child.


For Her

Deep in the ocean, by the high and low tide

In a place so very special, do you reside

In a world so complex and orthodox

You stand tall, guarding me like a fox

For me, I’m a simple calf, you the mother cow

One’s heart may be filled by a simple task, like going for a row

A mother is truly a guardian angel

Keeping light like a bright strong candle

An ember, lighting the way forward

Saving me whenever I feel a coward

As I’ll scramble for you one day

I know you’ll give me the hope, you may

For generations, for so long

The cicada sings a gentle song—

Without you, I am helpless and vulnerable

You are the one that makes me able

Thank you mothers, all around the world

A shower of love, of caring flood

Even if I cease to exist

Know that my love for you will go on
