My Mother Donna

More than just a mother to three daughters.
Yielding to almost nothing in her path.

Making sure to live life to its greatest.
Others don't come close to past troubles.
Then again, no person's life is the same.
Her life, like any, has its kinks in the chain.
Even with them though, she still holds on strong.
Regrets staying in the past where they belong.

Doesn't give herself credit where its due.
Only person I know to always trust.
Never forgets about what matters most.
Never lets her girls face the world alone.
Always my mother, always in my heart.
