THINKING OF MY MOTHER

Wandering back through the years
Holding back grateful tears
Thinking of my Mother

Small boy scared and afraid
Made to feel safe every day
Thinking of my Mother

Young man finding his way
Received encouragement every day
Thinking of my Mother

Traveled past mid-life years
Holding back loving tears
Thinking of my Mother

The end of her years
Weeping sorrowful tears
Thinking of my Mother

Going back to the start
You will live on in my heart
Thinking of my Mother

I love you Mom
