Mother-in-law and My Mother

Thousand of words have been written
About mothers,so what can I do?
But write words of honor in fairness
For you see, I really love two.
One love is my birth mother, given by God.
The one that married my Pa.
The other a blessing from heaven
that is known as my mother- in- law.
Now many bad jokes have been spoken
about mothers-in-law as you know;
but I'm here to give witness in writing
that the picture they paint is not so.
For a mother-in-law is a mother
and a mother is everyone's pride.
I'm proud of my mother and mother-in-law
It's a fact that that I never will hide.
All holidays hold special meaning
but none is so tender and dear
as the day that honors all mothers.
Let's do it each day of of the year.
