What Can I Give ~
What gift within the
universe could tell
What gift may have the
worth,
What gift express the love
To the one who gave me
birth.
If I descended deep into the
earth for riches
Climbed mountains high for
rarest bloom,
Traveled great rivers
searching
I would not find enough for
you.
What could I ever give, my
Mother
To repay for all your tears,
Your tender care, your
courageous spirit
Unsung devotion every
passing year.
Is there something you may
cherish
More than any treasured work
of art,
Might you overflow with a
pure content
If I give you all my loving
heart.

Soft Whispers for you from

"Mother's Day is in honor of
the best Mother who ever
lived the Mother of your
heart "
Anna Jarvis~
Her children rise up and
bless her.
Proverbs 31:28
A mother is the truest
friend we have,
when trials, heavy and
sudden, fall upon us;
when adversity takes the
place of prosperity;
when friends who rejoice
with us in our sunshine,
desert us when troubles
thicken around us,
still will she cling to us,
and endeavor by her kind
precepts and counsels to
dissipate the clouds of
darkness, and cause peace to
return to our hearts.
~ Washington Irving ~
