Mama Our Treasure

Mama Our Treasure
By Georgia

As we look back on these years
to see how far we’ve come and grown,

We take a trip down memory lane,
And what we see has shown

That every step we’ve taken,
you have been there by our sides.
From infacy to adulthood,
we’ve stood the test of time.

You cradled us and nurtured us
Through all these many years,
You held us and comforted us,
through happiness and tears.

You’d pick us up when we would fall,
You’d dust us off and then encourage us
to get back on that damn old horse again.

Your constant care and loving
and your warm inviting heart,
has always been a treasure that
We know would never depart.

If we could be just half the Mom
You have been to us,
Then you have taught us well dear Mom,
that family is a must.
