Mom

Mom
You was wise
With your advice
The love your heart held
Stuck to mine like a weld
So much I did learn
Even when the hate did burn
Always soothed my soul
I don't know if it was your goal
But you taught me to live
You taught me to give
The things I learned from you
Taught me to be true
For what I should fight for
Not to ask for more
Than what I need
For my words to plant the seed
My souls important to feed
I love you so much
At your memory I sometimes clutch
Mother of mine
Are you now an angel that can shine
I miss you
My love is still true.
Your always in my heart
Though your gone we're not apart
Thank you for all you done
Proud to of been your son

Oh how tender is your love for your mother. Shine and bright. I admire anyone who shows off their love and kindness to their parents. It’s the most beautiful thing. Beautiful and sweet dedication to your mother, William.
