A Baby's Prayer

Bless the mothers and praise their charms
I found "me" in mama's arms
Always safe, always sound
Always honoured with that bound
Graceful, delicate, almost silk
Bless all mothers of mama's ilk

Dear teddy

Thank you for your kind visit.
I never knew that ilk has a negative meaning. My dictionary doesn't mention any negative use

Here what I find:

ilk 1
— noun

family, class, or kind:
he and all his ilk.
— adjective

same .
— Idioms

of that ilk ,
(in Scotland) of the same family name or place:
Ross of that ilk, i.e., Ross of Ross.
of the same class or kind.

Thank you loved

I thought "myself" is grammatically more correct, but as the speaker is a baby, hence comes the quotation marks.
Thanks for the kind visit.
