A Tribute to Mom

Happy Mother's Day Mom

This is for you Mom, I miss you so. I think of you every minute of every day. I love you.

If I could only ask God -- in His high place

To bring back her youth and forever erase,

Those tired worried lines from her dear sweet face,

If I could only ask God -- for just one more request,

to lay my tired head on her warm mother's breast

If I could only ask God through his great power

To relive with mother just one more hour

I would cherish the moments when she would hold me so close,

and brush away the tears when I hurt the most.

If I could only ask...

I'd remember the times she calmed all my fears

just by her presence through the years.

My mother was precious and so is her love

because it's given unselfishly and came from above.

If I could only ask God for some way to convey

the love for my mother that I feel every day.

May God and my mother forgive me I pray

for any grief or trouble that I have brought her way.

So now I'm asking you God to please keep her near

So she may teach me to wipe away the tears
