Mama, on this Mother's Day I write this ode to you,
To honor the love and care you've given to me
You taught me how to walk and talk
And read me stories from your favorite book
You kissed my boo-boos and dried my tears
And chased away all of my childhood fears
You stayed up late to help me study
And cheered me on when I felt so muddy
You cooked my favorite meals with love
You sacrificed so much to see me grow
And guided me on the path I should go
You taught me to be kind and brave
And to never give up
Your love for me is beyond compare
And I thank you for always being there
For all the memories we've made
And the ones we have yet to create
So, on this special day, I say Happy Mother's Day, in every way
I love you more than words can say
And I thank you for being my mother, each and every day.
