For Bree, Paulie, Brooke, George & Sydnie...With Love

I know I don't have millions To leave you in my will But what I have for each of you Is something greater still I have a few possessions For each of you to keep Photographs and memories I know will make you weep All my sad sad poems Written through my tears All the journals of my life I wrote throughout the years My jewellery and diamonds For Sydnie, Brooke and Bree And every time you wear them I know you’ll think of me Jewellery and diamonds For George and Paulie too To give them to your little girls With love from me and you I know you that you will treasure All of the above But something far more greater I leave you... is my love It brought you all into this world And helped you all to grow With each and every step I’ve loved you more than you will know Each of you is different You all have your own ways From when you all were babies And through your childhood days Naughty things you said and did The secrets you would hide But even through your teenage years I watched you grow with pride The closeness that you share Between a sister and a brother The love I know is there Has made me proud to be your mother Now you’re all grown up And having children of your own And you will share with them The love and laughter you have known Keep with you your memories Your thoughts, your special song No one else can take To only you, they do belong Don't feel lost or lonely Or afraid of what to do Just follow your heart..knowing I'm always there with you Keep with you the knowledge That even from above Nothing in this world Is greater than a mothers love Never change for no one Just be always who you are And I’ll be right beside you Your forever guiding star...
