For all the times you've been there,

Since I stepped into this strange world,

Giving me strength, giving me courage.

Becoming the voice when I was unheard.

Giving me lessons to show that you care,

Every second we spend,

Becomes a special memory we share.

I take down notes, to know how to blend.

All the times I cried,

When no one heard.

Your love was unreal,

Only you can share the joy I feel.

You stayed, you stayed right here,

To kiss all the pain away.

Feeling the deep fear,

You helped me play it away.

You were sent from above,

You filled me with love.

The love that can't be sold,

The love that is more precious than gold.

You picked me up when I was down,

When I was hurt, you knew.

Forever you lent a hand,

You fed me with your gentle breast,

And hushed me to rest.

You sung a sweet lullaby,

And gently rocked me, so I don't cry.

I don't need no one,

Because you're always the special one.

Your moist eyes, filled with tears,

Bringing in fear.

I don't want to lose,

Lose you.

You sat and watched me,

Slept on my cradle bed.

Starved yourself,

Kept me fed.

Her eyes sparkling like a pearl,

Her lips as red as a rose,

She found my eyes shinning like hers,

And chose to name me her precious pearl.

And used to take me and swirl.

Her temper toughing the scorching sun,

Never did she take me away from my fun.

When I took the wrong path,

Giving me a little beating,

She sat with me when she caught me weeping

Always knowing what I want,

Always knowing what I feel,

Never did I have to confront,

A bond created as strong as steel.

Sometimes there are fights,

Fights we don’t expect,

But none can do any harm

For this love is so bright.

Thank you, Thank you are the words we forget.

Today I say to you, thank you for all you are,

Thank you for who you are,

Thank you for giving me life.

We often forget about the things that are done for us by our mothers, we tend to take them for granted. We don't realize that they carried us around in their womb for 9 months and gave us the gift of life.

We often forget that she fights for us against all to give us all the love and happiness we deserve. Arguing and fighting back on small things, we forget what they've given to us is something irreplaceable.
