Mum

Mum, it’s hard to find the words to say,

How much you mean to me,

But if it wasn’t for your love and care,

I don’t know where I'd be.

How did you do it all, mum,

Be a chauffeur, cook and friend,

Yet find time to be a playmate,

I just can’t comprehend.

“Mother” is such a simple word,

But to me there’s meaning seldom heard,

For everything I am today,

My mothers love showed me the way.

Nobody’s equal to you, mum,

With you in my life, I'm blessed,

I love you so, and I want you to know,

I think you’re the very best.

Words cannot say how I love you, mum,

And just how much I owe,

Please know that I’ll always be there for you too,

In the high times and low.
