Perfect Love
If words could only tell
How much you mean to me
I would write to you forever
In hopes that it would be
Enough to tell you thank you
My mother, my best friend
But nothing I would ever say
Could make you understand
How fortunate I am
To have been blessed with you
You mean everything and more to me
There is nothing I wouldn’t do
When I was just a little girl
Blonde ringlets in my hair
I always knew without a doubt
That you would always be there
In good times and bad times
That’s what a mother does
You’re not there because you have to be
But there just because
Through every smile and every tear
One thing always stays the same
Your loving arms and gentle smile
Unconditional love remains
Look at me before you mom
I am you, you see
All the very best parts of you
Have been created into me
You raised your little girl
To be the woman before you now
And being an image of you
Truly makes me proud
In life it is no secret
That nothing is as rare
Nothing holds a candle to
The love a mother and child share
Something so great could only have been
Created by God’s hand above
Blessed are we, you and I
What a perfect love
