I remember you Mother,
when you were called away
I remember watching all the years,
as your hair turned gray
I thin of all the times,
you set me on your knee
Of all the children
s stories and songs
that you taught to me
No matter how busy you were,
we would take time to talk.
When the weather was pleasant,
we'd always take a walk.
It is always these times together
that live in my memory.
They may seem small to others,
but priceless to me.
Everyday when I pray to our God above,
I thank him for giving me a mother,
with so much love.
A mother who had old shoes to wear
upon her feet.
And made sure I had good ones,
so I could look neat.
You didn't want others looking
down on me at school
Making remarks or gestures
and treating me so cruel.
You protected me from this worldly strife.
I can not begin to thank you
for how you improved my life.
So I will remember the things
you taught me and this I'll say,
I will try to live as you did, every passing day.
Always be kind to others, and trusting in God above
And sharing the most precious thing
you gave me, LOVE!
