Our Mum
What can you say
To someone who has always been one of
The most essential parts of your world?
Someone who took you by the hand
When you were little
And helped to show the way.
What do you say to someone
Who stood by to help you grow,
Providing love, strength, and support
So you could become the person
You are today?
What can you say to let her know
That she's the best there is,
And that you hope you've inherited
Some of her caring and her strength?
What words would you say
If you ever got the chance?
Maybe you just say,
‘I love you Mum’,
and know she understands.
