I was a boy and you were my Mother




I was a boy and you were my Mother

She is there for me when life is good to share in my joy
She is there for me when life goes awry to support me
She is there for me when all others have turned away
She is there for me whenever I need her
I was happy and you shared in my Joy
I was sad and you comforted me
I was lost and you guided me
I spoke and you understood
I walked away and you waited for me
I returned and you stood with open arms
I faltered and you helped me along

I was in need and you loved like no other
I was a boy and you were my Mother
I grew to a man and you said you were proud
I married one like you and you loved us aloud
I became a Father though it was unplanned
You were a mother and you became Grand

Happy Mother's Day Mom I love You!
