A Poem for my Mother

It’s your birthday, lovely lady,

my wish for you is pure.

I wish for you more birthdays,

with only comfort to endure.

I wish bird songs and Ill Divo serenades,

visits from family and friends galore.

I wish good memories of a happy life,

now’s the time to reflect and adore.

I wish you long talks with Jesus,

so He continues to fill your heart.

I wish for more time together,

for I’ve loved you from my start.

I write my poem to please you,

from the heart of the child in me.

For you’ve given me a mother’s love,

and that’s the way that it should be.

For you 84th birthday
