One In a Million

I would like to take a moment,
as theres something I must do,
To show appreciation,
and a love thats strong and true,
for a very special person,
who I couldnt live without,
a lady who brings warmth and light, 
whenever shes about.

The importance of this woman,
cant be told with words alone,
but the words that are not spoken,
in my mind are set in stone,
Shes the glue that holds together,
All the pieces of my life,
A mother like no other,
A treasure of a wife.

I count my blessings every day,
I know luck is on my side,
To have this special woman,
AS my mother and my guide,
my teacher and protector,
Never thinking of herself,
Doing everything to guarantee,
My happiness and health.

My debt to her is endless,
As shes done so much for me,
This small token of affection,
Is so everyone can see,
Easily unnoticed,
In the bustle of the crowd,
A woman so amazing,
Its no wonder im so proud.
