Mother

• I don’t remember my first memories when I arrived

I just remember looking at you and knowing you gave me life

• You took care of me and loved me above and beyond

And you gave me somewhere to live and love and belong

• You gave me a father, a sister and brothers

And I can happily say we love each other

• Even though you are not told

Everyone knows you have a heart of gold

• You are loving kind and smart

And I wish we were never ever apart

• But I know one day you will die

When that day comes I will endlessly cry

• But I am thankful you are here now

I can talk to you whenever I’m sad or down

• When you’re tired and old I’ll take care of you because you’re not a bother

I am forever grateful for having you as my mother
