A mother isn't always the woman who birthed you.
The Mother I Needed.

Your nurturing embrace and motherly love,
are all I need in my life.
You raised me up and nurtured my soul,
your hug was never a lie.
You taught me right and loved my good,
always accepted my core.
You gifted me wings and gave me a song,
encouraged me always to soar.
You never carried me in your womb,
nor went through all the pain.
You never really gave birth to me,
but you loved me all the same.
