Perfect Love

If words could only tell How much you mean to me I would write to you forever In hopes that it would be Enough to tell you thank you My mother, my best friend But nothing I would ever say Could make you understand How fortunate I am To have been blessed with you You mean everything and more to me There is nothing I wouldn’t do When I was just a little girl Blonde ringlets in my hair I always knew without a doubt That you would always be there In good times and bad times That’s what a mother does You’re not there because you have to be But there just because Through every smile and every tear One thing always stays the same Your loving arms and gentle smile Unconditional love remains Look at me before you mom I am you, you see All the very best parts of you Have been created into me You raised your little girl To be the woman before you now And being an image of you Truly makes me proud In life it is no secret That nothing is as rare Nothing holds a candle to The love a mother and child share Something so great could only have been Created by God’s hand above Blessed are we, you and I What a perfect love
