My Inspiration

I still remember that wonderful day

When you welcomed me inside your home

With open arms and a smile so bright

From that moment on I felt whole

You gave me more than I could dream

You filled my heart with joy and love

And now you continue to watch over me

From the glorious Heaven's above

You showed me more in the short time we had

I know in my heart you don't want me sad

That is one promise I can't always keep

As sometimes it's how I fall asleep

I miss your calls and the coffee you'd make

And I know the kids miss the cookies you'd bake

I will always carry you in my heart

And I know with that we won't be apart

Mom there is something that I must say

You have helped me to be who I am today

I treasure the memories you have given to me

And thank you for allowing me in your family
