Dear Mother
By Lisa Noe

Dear Mother, Your eyes sparkle and shine they’re
Beautiful green like the emeralds in the mines.
Your beauty comes from within, from you soul
You’re generous, and full of love and always in control

I love and respect you, you’re my sunshine so bright
My favorite thing to do is be with you on Monday night.
Each and every Monday we have made into a fun day
Going to dinner, watching the telly, and always games at play.

Dear Mom I love you dearly and I thank you for my life
I still miss dad and worry for you, it cuts just like a knife.
I can’t believe he’s been gone so long and you are all alone.
I admire you, your qualities are strong, you’re the best I’ve known.

Yes I hear you crying in the night, for father is not here
be thankful for the things we have and hold them dear
I think you are an angel, yes this I do believe
your soul is so pure you could never deceive.
