Unconditional Love

Happy birthday, my mother and friend,
 Since I was a child, you would always defend.
 Your love has always, been unconditional,
 Even when, my moods were transitional.
 I cannot forget, all the things you have done,
 Through actions and words, my esteem you have won.
 You taught me to live, with courage and passion,
 With the less fortunate, I learned your compassion.
 Today is your birthday, I hope you dance,
 This celebration, I’m sure you’ll enhance.
 From the depths of my heart, I just want to say,
 You are my mother, and my love I display.
