Thank You Mama For Holding Me Ever So Close

Thank You Mama For Holding Me Ever So Close Mama come and hold me ever so close Comfort me as only you know how so Read to me ever so softly cause I can't sleep Please prepare warm up for me some milk Oh' you walk me to kindergarten You make me apple pie from the orchard And homemade vegetable soup from the garden Thank you mama Thank you mom Mama would put ointment and alcohol on my wounds Help me with my home work when I could remember Wash and fold my clothes And I'd put them away Cook me homemade breakfast Knit and darn my old tattered sweater Mama come and hold me ever so close Comfort me as only you know how so Thank you mama Thank you mom Thank you mama for holding me ever so close 11/09/17 By James Edward Lee Sr.

There's nothing like mama's love, nothing like her hugs and kisses! Just irreplaceable! Nothing tastes better than the food she cooked. Nothing better than her sweet touch! I miss mine so much! Such a beautiful dedication to a wonderful mother! Love it! Hugs. Pandita

Thanks Pandita my dear friend. You're always and forever appreciated. My mother been gone since 1974. So this verse is in remembrance and dedication to all mom's living and gone on. The greatest love is God/Jesus, the next and only second greatest love is mama!!! ---James
