Mom
Now that I'm Older...
As I look back on the years,
I begin to understand.
All my life you have loved me,
Only as a Mother can.I see the love that surrounded,
The countless sleepless nights.
The scraped knees and hurt feelings,
Your hugs and kisses magically made right.Your sound advice and guidance,
When I really needed you.
And happy days spent together,
Talking and laughing as we do.The many times you went without,
To build a better life for me.
Your endless love has made a difference,
In who I've come to be.Mom, your love has come full circle,
As I now love and honor you.
You are always in my heart,
For all you are and all you do.
