My Mom

God made a wonderful mother who never grows old.
He made her smile out of sunshine and her heart of pure gold.

Everything she cooks is prepared with such a big fuss.
They say she bakes pies, but I really don't like her crust.

When pain is caused by bitter words from others,
She fiercely defends you, because she's a mother

Those times you're so low that you can't seem to arise,
she's right there beside you to dry your eyes.

Sometimes you feel unwanted, ugly, and old.
She's there to remind you -"You shine like gold."

She helps because she wants to, she finds joy in being kind.
Making others happy is the first thing on her mind.

She makes this old world a better place by practicing the art,
of reaching out to others and by giving from the heart.

Mom excels in doing thoughtful deeds before you ask.
She looks for no reward, helping others is her life's task

Sure she has many opinions to spare,
but she only gives advice because she truly cares.

She may not always tell us what we want to hear,
but the source of her wisdom is from our Creator, so dear.

Stability within our family, you have always been the "glue."
Of all your qualities, that's probably been the hardest to do.

You are everything a mother should be and do.
Whatever good I have become, is because of you...

For as long as I can remember... and still today,
I LOVE YOU,  I LOVE YOU,  that's all there is to say!
