The Only Star For Me
There’s a bright star in the sky and it’s called
“Mothers Above”
where angels gather to shine o’er us with motherly love.~ Quote poets own ~
There's a star brighter than any other
That is my irreplaceable mother
Always kindly, caring, gentle and sweet
Without her being here life's incomplete.
Mother's life wasn't cushy, I knew full well
Yet mom did not complain or ever tell
Secrets from her heart she'd never discuss
She just lived life without making a fuss.
Mother was beauteous inside and out
An earth angel was she without a doubt
Raising five daughters must have been a task
Working too with hardly time to relax.
As are all mothers she was a bright light
Shining for us every day, every night
Now mom’s looking down from heaven above
Still smiling, caring and beaming her love.
