In My Mother's Eyes

In My Mother's Eyes,
I See A Woman
Whose Strength Gave
Me Life.
In My Mother's Eyes,
I See A Love For
Her Child.
Which Grows day And
Night.
In My Mother's Smile,
I See Protection And
Safety
And I Know That She
Will Always Be There.
In My Mother's Heart,
I Know That, Even
Though I Am Miles Away,
My Mother Is Never That
Far.
In My Mother's Dreams,
I See A Place Where I
Stand By Her Side.
I Tell Her Softly Not
To Worry
And That There Is No
Need To Cry.
In My Mother's Mind,
She Understands The
Reasons I Had To Leave.
But She Knows I'll Come
Back When I Am New.
It Won't Be Long...
You'll See !
