Poem for Mother's Day!

The day of my birth, the sun appeared
to bestow you, I, your child,
or at least that's how you make me feel.

Ever since that day, your sky became I-
the one you contemplated everyday
and every night.

My many gestures like a charade
game with the clouds for you, became.
My screams and cries like the storms
that turned your beautiful days into sunless ones.

what I wanted to say, you learned to guess
without the need to finish all my lines
though, you didn't just learned,
much more than that, you did.

You came to understand
my every expression
my every action,
and my every change

Your intuition help you learn and understand
the weather of the sky in me

Nevertheless, one too many times,
I surprised you, your predictions seemed to have fail.
Because a cloudy day, you weren't expecting to see in me,
nor did you forecasted any rains to cascade from my eyes,
but even so,
you were prepared to stand and watch your sky cry,
you were patient to let the rain in me pass out.

and occasionally,
when some thunders from my sight, I released,
you showed that you are lovable and strong
because I scared you, I know,
but despite being scared
you remained by my side and helped me dealt with my thunders

and when you couldn't do so,
by my side, you still remained
while you patiently prayed that your sky
will soon be illuminated with sunshine rays.

Thankfully,
those prayers were heard
because the many twisters of my life soon went away

and even when the rays of my hopes went dim
you were there with a candle in your hand
to light the days and nights for me

the moment I was born, I became part of your sky
the one you have contemplated no matter the weather

and mama,
Thanks to you

Every time I'd look upon the sky
I will see you, my love and my future child
just like you see all your children and my dad.
