Yes - Virginia!



Accolades left wanting
I love you beyond any treasure
Each year a gift to us
Eighty and four - I pray for more

The lines in your face
Have their stories to tell
Sure I am responsible
For one or two wrinkle

If I can be half the mother
You were to seven
My own would be blessed
By God from heaven

Today I give to you
A bouquet of gratitude
From the garden of love
You have planted in my heart

Happy Mother's Day, Mom.
