Mothers Day

Mothers Day The second Sunday every May I think of someone I hold dear She made me what I am today A day of tribute to her life I think of someone I hold dear Despite the time she was in pain She cared for me through sun and rain but there was fun and candy bars She made me what I am today To reach a peak I that I strove for And make her proud of me once more To carry on no matter what A day of tribute to her life To all the mothers who knew strife And pledged their life to all their kin Remember Mom on Mothers Day Shall We Retourne Contest Debbi Guzzi October 18, 2015
