An Ode to Mama

An Ode to Mama 

She taught me to be sharp, smart and tact,
She taught me to listen well and when to fight back,
Her posture shines that of a strong lioness,
Proper polite and caring is her prowess,
The strong woman, Onn's number 3,
She helps everyone with no care of getting anything back this Lady from the house of 63,
She raised her 3 kids well with her husband,
Although she felt like she's raising 3000.

I can never replace Tok Ayah or Baba,
I'm not the smartest nor am I that great of a man
But you believe in me, whispering in your prayers "I know you Can"

May Allah bless you and have a safe trip later,
Happy 51st to my strong, loving mother.
You saw me out into the world from your womb,
I hope I can see you out to your tomb.

From God we came,
To Him we'll go to,
InSyaAllah God grants you the strength to see,
The growth of your wonderful family tree.
Happy Birthday Mama
