MOTHER'S DAY

Your Little Girl

Going from the care of one I love,
          To the arms of another,
Was hard for me to do,
          Because I had to leave you, Mother.
Each one who starts her married career,
          Must feel the same as I do.
I have a good husband and a new life,
          But Mom, I miss you.

Remember the day at our wedding,
          When the tears came to your eye?
Both of us were thinking of the past,
          As we began to cry.
We shouldn�t waste time in days gone by,
          When there�s such a future ahead.
But somehow I am sure,
          Our memories will never be dead.

We were so close when I was a child,
          And you led me by the hand.
I knew no matter what I did,
          You would try to understand.
My feeling hasn�t changed though, Mom,
          Because I have it yet today.
I respect your wisdom even more,
          And your unselfish way.

Hand in hand we�ll keep going through the years,
          With a new goal in sight.
You will teach me the way to be a good wife
          �.. The way that�s right.
From you and life I�ll learn to react to love,
          And it�s dizzy whirl.
But in both of our minds I shall always be
          �.. Your little girl.
