My infant eyes
looked into yours
finding safety and limitless love,
and so our life together began
You watched me grow
and I watched you love me,
striving to be all that was You
You, where I felt safe and at home
We walked down many paths
some long and wearisome
some wondrous and new
our hearts, kindred always
lead us back home, to each other
Now I look into my child's eyes,
and am filled with the love
that you must have felt
when you first looked into mine
I hope to be half the mother you are
and I shall look
to the memories of you and I,
the love, the laughter, the tears
where I will find guidance,
and your never ending love
I am so proud that you are my Mom
I love you...
