A Mothers love is a gold blanket Yet without a Fathers bed of support That blanket gets pulled a bit to tight She tries to be all for her children A hanky on the thumb and she's Thumbliena She has her child's helmet in the bathroom during a Minor earthquake She's Agnes the toilet rider, and she cracks you and you're friends up She tells you stories of a lady and her exploding girdle She thinks she has you fooled She thinks her children are unaware Unaware of how hard she really works Unaware how close and often they have come To loosing all But you know I know A single Mother is a job that shouldn't be necessary So as her children we love and appreciate her all the more Thank you Toilet Rider JPowell

About this poem:
This is about all single Mothers in general: My Mother in particular
My nephew is a single parent at the moment, though his wife has left him before and come back, we are still waiting for her to come back. I miss my mom's cooking. I certainly ate better when I lived at home, slept better too.
