Mom, without you there would be no me.
Your love, your attention, your guidance,
Have made me who I am.
Without you, I would be lost,
Wandering aimlessly,
Without direction or purpose.
You showed me the way
To serve, to accomplish, to persevere.
Without you, there would be an empty space
I could never fill, no matter how I tried.
Instead, because of you,
I have joy, contentment, satisfaction and peace.
Thank you, Mom.
I have always loved you,
And I always will.
