Thank You Mom

If I took a little minute to write a poem for you,
It would turn into a lifetime for all the things you do....
So I'll try and keep it simple.
There's some things I wish to say,
And what better day to say them than
Today on Mother's Day?

Things haven't been easy for you.
We know you've had it tough
With one thing or another
God knows enough's enough.

At times you're so frustrated
And you're feeling rather low,
But you're cherished by your family
More than you will ever know.

We know you want your life back
And how things used to be,
But things will soon get better mum.
Just you wait and see.

In all my life you guided me
And showed me right from wrong.
You are my inspiration, Mum.
You're the music in my song.

You were there for me when times were hard.
You're always close at hand.
You guided me to happiness.
You're the best mum in the land.

I never could repay you.
You're worth your weight in gold.
If ever I would need you, Mum,
Your hand is there to hold.

Your advice is always listened to,
But you always have to say,
"It's your decision, Sweetheart."
You'll make it, come what may.

So thank you, Mum, for making me
The person I've become,
And through your loving guidance
I'm a clone of you, my mum.
