Hello, this is a lovely entry for the mother's day poetry contest and best of luck with this very original work. I enjoyed it and noticed no errors, it is a work I'd recommend to other readers for review, Ana.

Comment from Katya
Very strange and interesting. I have never seen a poem quite like this one before. The alternation between lifeless conventionalism and vivid sincere imagery is quite startling.

Thank you, meeshu: I chose the most unusual approach here that I could imagine. I tried to make it as unique as, Mom.
Thank you for the five star review.
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written poem for mother's day. We do not know how much a mother sacrifice for her children until we have our own children and can truly relate with what a mother's role is.

Comment from Sis Cat
Your poem is a true winner here. What a delight. I enjoyed the conversation and humor between mother and son as she recalls birthing him:
"Whole bottom sore. Had three before.
I want my son. I'm back for more."
"This kid will be smart. He's got a big head.
He'll be a genius. I might be DEAD! OW!"
I noticed taht you use a lot of commas instead of periods and that you placed commas in the wrong place. I suggest reading the rules on commas.
I love the PUSH and the recollections. The grateful son is cheery at the end,
"I'll be right on it, Mom. If you say so...it's off to work I'll go.
See you at dinner. You're a true winner."
Fun, fun, fun. Thank you for sharing.

Very different way to honor your Mother, but interesting. Very nicely done, though I am not sure how you managed to know what your mother actually went through, but you very nicely wrote about a mother and her son. Good Luck and Best Wishes in the Contest! Sherman541

I love the use of dialogue. This gives me an idea of what childbirth is like in a truly beautiful way and the bond between mother and son. I love the use of rhyme in this. Well done!
