I glanced into the mirror
Never dreaming that I’d see
A face, one so familiar
Yet you were looking back at me.
I saw your loving smile, so warm
The crinkle round your eyes
I heard your gentle laughter
Your often soothing sighs.
In conversations with family and friends
I hear your voice in mine
I pause and think of years gone by
Another place and time.
You nurtured me and watched me grow
Held me when I cried
And though I often stumbled
You were always by my side.
You shared the love of GOD with me
Taught me how to pray
And often when unsure
You helped me find the way.
Im often told im just like you
A compliment I adore and treasure
For within my heart I know we share
A mother and son love beyond all measure
