A perfect mom

I embrace the role 
You showed me 
The ropes needed 
Step for step 

How to care
How to love
How to be
A perfect mom 

I may not at times
Take all the advice
I'll use some
And make it my own

How to feed
How to nourish
How to be
A perfect mother 

With all my heart
I'll carry the torch
Hoping to pass on
The gift of legacy

From the heart
Char
