A rose so beautiful
That’s what you are
An aroma so fresh
I can breathe from afar
From the day I saw light
You held me in your arms
To keep me safe From all harm
When I was learning my ABC
You were the one who encouraged me
You helped me through
At the times so dark
In my life you’ve made a mark
Mom you are a gift to me
A gift that no one else can be
And in this time of toil and pain
You need to know all’s not in vain
As time might pass
And things might change
I need you to understand my rage
It’s not against you not at all
But I know that in your arms I’ll fall
Even though I’m big and strong
I’ll never do you any wrong.
And if it seems I’ve lost my way
I need you not to turn away
For in my heart I will behold
This gift of life as pure as gold
You are for me a flower pure
A rose I’ll hold forever dear
Mom, I love you with all my heart
From my thoughts you will never depart.
