My Mother seems so far away from me, On that beautiful white shore across the sea. Yet I remember love’s soft glow upon her face, And the feel of her touch and tender embrace. When I am weary from the burdens I’ve borne, And the path is unclear and I feel so forlorn, I remember her loving support was always near, And her advice made the path ahead seem clear. When I feel there is no one who seems to care, Or when the heartache seems too hard to bear, I remember how she always stood by my side, And would tenderly wipe away the tears I cried. When there are moments of great joy and pride, And I wish my Mother was standing at my side, I remember she saw more than I thought I could be, And know I owe my triumphs to her belief in me. When I reminisce about the things she used to say, And I miss her and think she is so far away, I remember what she gave lives on through me, And one day I’ll see her on the shore across the sea. LOVE YOU MOM
