Tender moments... sweet instants...
Days gone by ...memories of yesteryear...
So vivid at this moment...
The kisses...of tender years...bright smiles
Getting up on endless nights...no complaints
Only hush...hush...baby don't cry...
Feeling wet...suddenly dry...no complaints
Days...nights...endless years...
Hold my hand...it will be your first step
Terrible twos...yes... those were the years
Laughing matters...careless years...
Messy lunches...spaghetti all over the place
Run my dear..it's your first school day...
Mommy...mommy... my first drawing...
Time runs away...you became an adolescent...
Your first love...your prom night...
Mom was always there...so proud to see...
My baby is getting married today...
Mom you are going to be a grandmother someday...
And the process will repeat again...
But now...mom...seeing you laying there...
Sleeping...with the eternal smile...
The eternal smile...that I will remember...
For the rest of my days...
Rest in peace dear mother of mine...
Because you were...
The greatest love of all...
