Dear Mama,

Thank you for the unconditional love

That comes from heaven above

Your guidance and direction

And your fierce protection

Things you set in stone

For never leaving me alone

For lifting me up

Filling my cup

Helping me stand

Every time I took your hand

The discipline you gave every day

Letting me know God will make a way

For every moment we shared

Always showing you cared

For every encouraging word

I ever heard

You are the light

I follow day and night

You make me smile

Even laugh a little while

You filled my soul

With what makes me whole

Thank you for making me see

What’s truly meant to be

You were part of every journey

Meant just for me only

You planted seeds

That lead to good deeds

Thoughts of you fill my heart

Show me where to start

You taught me well

In a positive mindset I dwell

I know you rest in a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Thank you for the path you set

I move without regret

Your life lessons

Have become heartfelt confessions

They keep me strong

Whether I’m right or wrong

They’ve made me last

Despite my checked past

I’m filled to the core

I love you more

Mama
