She lived to give you and nurture you in life
She had a life and you her promise
She taught, guided and loved you more than I can surmise
If she had to, no price was high enough for you, she’d pay with her life

She loves, you must know, in her special way
Above all, deep beneath, almost spiritual
Don’t you forget, make her proud so make it mutual
She’d be thrilled though she is not here today
