My Mother, May She Always Know that She's Cherished

May you always know your cherished, loved and thought of every day.
I don't have to wait till your birthday, or Mothers Day to say what I need to say.
I may have moved many miles away but your close to me in my heart,
I carry many memories of you daily, for this will never part.

You were there for me when I struggled and tried to learn things for the very first time.
There to lend me money, when I was down to my last dime.
You never criticize me, only offer love and support.
Even there to sit beside me when it was time to go to divorce court.

Gave me wisdom when it came to child rearing, and have helped my kids more than you'll ever know,
Oh how they love their Nanny, this makes my whole face glow.
Because someone else can see what I've been blessed with for 44 years,
a Mother that is priceless, my friend and a dear.
