Heaven Sent Angels

One of a kind angels on Earth would wrap us in their wings
The kind of heavenly love only a mother could bring
Perseveres through the seasons of change,our Mom, a beautiful butterfly
Nurtured our colorful creativity as we shed our cocoons with our goals aimed high
Our secret keeper, Grandmother Moon moves gracefully through lifes thorns beautiful as a rose
Sprinkled us with everlasting love and sunshine as we blossomed from our heads to our toes
Gladly gave extra breath for the winds in our sails encouraging us to follow our dreams
Pushed us to strive and keep trying as tasks aren't always as impossible as they might seem
With each beat of their own inspired us to dance to the songs in our hearts
Upon branching away from the nest our impeccable bonds never will part
Strikes fiercer than a wolf on those who pose a threat 
Forever has our backs as we do theirs so there's no need to fret
Protective of us cubs is still our mama bear
No matter our age she'll forever worry and care
For the miraculous women in our lives we would go to great lengths
These heaven sent angels helped us to flourish and grow as did our own strengths
Wise beyond their years from their solid roots nourishing life sets them free
They glow with childlike enchantment with each new extension of the family tree
Once children and moms now great grandmas, nanas and new moms too as we keep moving generation to generation
Upon raising our own we'll always harbor for them the utmost love respect and admiration
