Mother, I am blessed

I am blessed by your presence

It encircles and gives confidence

Whenever you are around.

I am blessed by your love

It is warm and secure

With every hug you reassure.

I am blessed by your guidance

It teaches me self-reliance

A great compass you are.

I am blessed by your sacrifice

It is not taken for granted

It is greatly appreciated.

I am blessed above all

Things great and small

To have you as my mother!
