You taught me to believe in myself
And encouraged me to soar.
You protected me from harm, keeping
Enemies away with your roar.
You raised me to feel wealthy
Even though we were poor.
You showed me God's grace by
Always making room for one more.
You are the personification of unconditional love
The epitome of selflessness.
You are the embodiment of true beauty
The essence of graciousness.
You are my Mother
my Motivator
my Strength
And my Friend.
