To Jacob,

From Deborah Erlichson

From a mother to her son: You are my first born,
My son who I have sworn to love.
When you smiled at me for the first time,
No doubt, you are a part of me,
Can’t you see?
My unconditional love for you is immeasurable,
Yet it was and is so pleasurable!
I fed you, bathed you, and took care of you when you were sick,
You were and still are my heart and soul; you loved lollipops & favored every lick.
You are my inspiration and my joy,
So why displace it with a ploy?
You are married now and have your own life,
Please don’t disregarded me and give me strife.
When you don’t call me to ask me how I feel,
It makes me sick like a sunburn getting ready to peel.
You are a great father and good husband,
And so glad and so proud of you.
All of my eternal Love,
Mom
