happy MAK's day!!!

"M" is for the million things she gave me,

"O" means only that she's growing old,

"T" is for the tears she shed to save me,

"H" is for her heart of purest gold;

"E" is for her eyes, with love-light shining,

"R" means right, and right she'll always be,

Put them all together, they spell

"MOTHER,"

A word that means the world to me.

God made a wonderful mother,

A mother who never grows old;

He made her smile of the sunshine,

And He moulded her heart of pure gold;

In her eyes He placed bright shining stars,

In her cheeks fair roses you see;

God made a wonderful mother,

And He gave that dear mother to me

I miss you so much,

your laugh, your smile, your touch.

You always brightened my days

with all the smiles you sent my way.

I need you as my angel

to always be at my side.

I need you as my angel

to give me peace of mind.

I like to think your near to me

to know that you are there.

Even though I can not see you,

I feel that you are near.

Please do not forget me mom,

for you are always in my heart,

my thoughts and prayers.

I love you.

If I could give you diamonds

for each tear you cried for me.

if I could five you sapphires

for each truth you've helped me see.

If I could give you rubies

for the heartache that you've known

If I could give you pearls

for the wisdom that you've shown.

Then you'll have a treasure, mother,

that would mount up to the skies

That would almost match

the sparkle in your kind and loving eyes.

But I have no pearls, no diamonds,

As I'm sure you're well aware

So I'll give you gifts more precious

My devotion, love and care.

As I look back on my life

I find myself wondering...

Did I remember to thank you

for all that you have done for me?

For all of the times you were by my side

to help me celebrate my successes

and accept my defeats?

Or for teaching me the value of hard work,

good judgement, courage, and honesty?

I wonder if I've ever thanked you

for the simple things...

The laughter, smiles, and quiet times we've shared?

If I have forgotten to express my gratitude

For any of these things,

I am thanking you now...

and I am hoping that you've known all along,

how very much you are loved and appreciated.

Mak,

I would copy & paste thousands even millions

of mother's day poems for you,

just to show you,

my gratitude, appreciation and love

towards you.....

sorry for all my wrongdoings,

and thank you so very much for all you have done for me....

for you are,

my one and only MAK....
