That very first day you held me in your arms,
I knew you�d always be there for comfort.
The day I learned your name,
I knew it would stick forever.
When I took my first step
I understood you would always be my teacher.
There are so many things a mother can give,
So many people she can touch.
She�s something more as a mother than she ever was as a daughter,
A sister,
A wife.
You push me to the top,
To be what you never were.
You stretch the boundaries far and wide
To make sure I get through.
You love the unloved.
You heal the hurt.
You cry the tear of another�s sadness.
�Mother� is a title
As special as a queen,
But something more.
�Mother� is a teacher,
Paid not with money
But with love and respect,
�Mother� is my mother,
The one I love,
The one I cherish,
The one I will never let go.
