To My Mother

For all the times you gently picked me up,

When I fell down,

For all the times you tied my shoes

And tucked me into bed,

Or needed something

But put me first instead.

 

For everything we shared,

The dreams, the laughter,

And the tears,

I love you with a “special Love”

That deepens every year.

You Are My Mother and My Friend

You are my mother and my friend,

Which is unusual.

Somehow our characters must blend:

Your wisdom and my will.

I turn, and you are there for me;

I speak, you understand.

I feel cared for, but also free;

You lead but don’t command.

I’m fortunate that I was born

To someone just like you;

I love you, not just as my mom,

But for what you are and do.
