Mother, you receive little acclaim <br />for all your work, struggle and strain <br />You had to do so much, it's a shame <br />instead of pursuing your own fortune and fame <br /> <br />I want you to know this Mother's Day <br />That you have been so wonderful <br />in your own special way <br />with love and kindness you always display <br /> <br />You've given me the gift of life <br />and tried to shield me from sadness and strife <br />I just want you to know when I see your caring eyes <br />I'm always reminded and realize <br /> <br />How lucky I am to have you as my Mother <br />and I want you to know I never wished for another <br />Thank you for all you've done and do <br />A most beautiful Mother's Day I wish for you! <br /> <br />© James T.
