For Mom Poem by Kumbirai Thierry Nhamo

To the woman who loved me long before my first breath,
A birthday poem, to honor you with love that knows no death.
Mom, on this special day, as you blow out each candle's light,
I'll strive to capture the depth of my feelings, shining bright.

You've been my guiding star, leading me through every storm,
A relentless protector, keeping my spirit safe and warm.
With tenderness, you nurtured me, like a beautiful flower,
Teaching me life's lessons, hour after precious hour.

In your embrace, I found solace, in your eyes, purest affection,
Your comforting words whispered, mending any soul's affliction.
You believed in my dreams, igniting a fire deep within,
Your unwavering support, the catalyst to help me begin.

Through heartaches and triumphs, the journey that we've shared,
Your love, a constant river that has always truly cared.
You're an inspiration, your strength radiates so serene,
In times of turmoil, your presence like a beacon, evergreen.

From bandaging my wounds to listening to my dreams,
You've imbued me with an unwavering belief, it seems.
Now, as I stand before you, a boy turning into a man,
My gratitude overflows, like a river's gentle span.

Happy birthday, dear Mom, your celebration rings true,
A testament to a mother's love, forever tried and true.
May this day be exceptional, filled with joy, laughter, and bliss,
For you deserve all the happiness, sealed with a loving kiss.
