For My Mother
By-Amanda D. Petty

You raise me up, when I’m dealing with my depression.
When I see you bright beam, I can’t help it but to smile.
You didn’t give up on me, when I gave you emotional hell.
You make me laugh, when my low-self-esteem kicks in.
You didn’t walk away, when my odious accident came.
You are an incredible woman, and you’re my angel.
You succor me by your special, ardor examples.
You put up with my scornful, harrowed moods.
Mother, with your love, I’m in sanctuary.
You’re emancipating my weakness, and
The inside rock comes out to aide me.
Did I select you to be my mother?
No, you picked me to be yours.

More Than Poetry: We take “Pretty Petty Poetry” very, very seriously. Some people think poetry is very “old fashioned”, boring, and not that interesting. We can understand. To us, poetry is the true heart of a person.
Amanda describes it as: lyrics without any music. Because of my speech, I can’t talk fast or normal; discovering poetry has really opened me up.
