Mother's the heart

The true inspiration

She keeps the family tight

She is the bond that ties

For with her we can trust

She looks out for those of us

Whether sunny or in vale

She is the warm rush of air

The kiss on the cheek

The goodnight hug

Comforting and sure

More than a shoulder to cry on

More than the confidence

When shadows take flight

Correcting when needed

But not to overbear

She does everything with care

And leads to the light

With her impeccable example

We can follow her footsteps

We can do hard things

And step into the light
