God above has given us this special gift. A mother who keeps us from going adrift. The sound of her voice can take away our tears. A mother is also the one that hears our fears. She seems to have that gift to calm and heal. A mother really does know how you feel. Sometimes it is hard to hold on to life’s rope. A mother teaches you how to cope. She tells you to get on your knees every day. A mother teaches you how to pray. Her words are with us when we are apart. A mother loves with a tender heart. I hold you dear and you have that heavenly touch. I just want you to know I love you very much. Edward J. Ebbs - Mother's Day, 2004
