To (Elaine Massie).

There are times only when a Mother's love
Can understand our tears,
Can soothe our disappointments
And calm all our fears.
  
There are times when only a Mother's Love
Can share the joy we feel
When something we've dreamed about
Quite suddenly is real.
  
There are times when only a Mother's faith,
Can help us on life's way,
And inspire in us the confidence
we need from day to day.
  
For a Mother's heart and a Mother's faith.
And a Mother's steadfast love.
Were fashioned by the Angels.
And sent from God above.
  
Since the moment I entered this world,
You have cared for me like no other.
There is only one word to describe you,
That is in every way a perfect Mother.
  
When there's a cloud covering my path,
Or a problem I am about to face.
You'll be the one wipe away my tears,
And put everything back in its place.
  
Your warm touch is one of a kind,
So gentle to send me to sleep.
Your voice is one of an angels,
A beauty only heaven deserves to keep.
  
I love you mom you are my light' . When things are so dark, you shine so bright..
