Mum

Always there to give me a loving hug

Provided soup when I got the dreaded bug

Showed me the path that would guide me right

And when I was young you tucked me at night

 

You allowed me to grow but I knew you were there

I made many mistakes but you didn’t care

I could always come back to you no matter what I’d done

In your eyes I was always the perfect son

 

Maybe I never really appreciated what you gave up

You sat there quietly drinking the tea from your cup

Only now as I’m older I see everything more clear

You gave me a great life I have no fear

 

For me it’s not just one day you’re a special mum

I’ll let everyone know, I’ll keep banging your drum

Thanks for making me who I am this very day

I hope you have a wonderful wonderful mother’s day!
