Mother's Day

A special day for you my mother,
there can be no other.
God made just one of you,
as a new mother you had no clue.
To raise a baby it would take a crew,
many times my crying made you feel blue.
Then you watched me as I grew,
for one day I would be a lady~you just knew.
One day I would be on my way as I flew,
now grown up I needed my own point of view.
