My Mother, My Friend

You have given so much of yourself and still have more to share When others closes their hearts to love you always seem to care My mother, my friend how gracious you've shown your love to me You give of your heart so freely for all of the world to see A beautiful rose and petals from a flower, the root of the family tree My mother, my friend a gift from God you mean all the world to me There is no replacement for the unconditional love of a mother When God formed her he broke the mold for there could never be another You're just like a tiger in a den thats protective of her lair The sharing of your countless love shows others that you care We sometimes forget that a mother is a blessing from above My mother, my friend a deep well of never ending love Copyright 2013
