Our Mother Kept A Garden
Our Mother kept a garden.
A garden of the heart;
She planted all the good things,
That gave our life a bright start.
She turned us to the sunshine,
And encouraged us to dream:
Fostering and nurturing
The seeds of self-esteem.
And when the winds and rains came,
She protected us enough;
But not too much, she knew we would need
To stand up strong and tough.
Her constant good example,
Always taught us right from wrong;
Markers for our pathway
To last our whole life long.
We are our Mother's garden,
We are her legacy.
And we hope today she feels the love,
Reflected back from us.
Mum we love you
And we miss you so much.
