My Mother, My Friend

Just three years now
since you've been gone
I think you'd be proud
of how we've carried on

I listen for you in the wind
and see you in the sky
you brush against my skin
which causes me to cry

Life is a circle
it flows without end
as the love we shared
Mother, daughter ... friends

You give me inspiration
even though you're gone
you give me the strength
to carry on

And the circle of love
continues to flow
in the hearts of my children
as I watch them grow

They are learning about life
in the ways you taught me
and I am forever grateful
that God gave you to me

Happy Mother's Day, Mom.
