Dear Mom,
You are my mother, my guiding light,
And today I write with all my might,
I have a request, so important and dear,
That I hope will bring you joy and cheer.
Mom, I'm asking for your loving support,
To fill my heart and dreams with rapport,
I long to pursue my passion in life,
To chase my dreams, relieve every strife.
The emotion I feel, deep within my core,
Is gratitude, love, and admiration, and more,
For you have always been by my side,
Supporting me, cheering me, acting as my guide.
You've sacrificed so much for my sake,
For which no words of gratitude can make,
But now, I ask for your unwavering trust,
To take that leap, fulfill my wanderlust.
Though I know it may cause you some fear,
I promise to always keep you near,
And with your support, I'll soar high,
In pursuit of my dreams that touch the sky.
So, dear Mom, please grant me your backing,
For this chance, I believe is worth taking,
For our bond is strong, unbreakable, and true,
And with your love, I know I'll make it through.
Yours forever grateful,
[Your Name]
