A Poem

To you I give my love, enough love to fill
all the oceans, rivers and streams of the
world. 
To you I give my hope, that someday all of
your hopes, dreams and wishes may come true.

To you I give my respect, for all that you
are, for all that you've been to me and all
that you want me to be.

To you I give my knowledge, of knowing that
you have helped me become who I am today.
And know what I want to become tomorrow.

For you see Mother, I was just a slow learner
blessed with a great teacher!
