I move with you
In all you do
I see possibilities
That you turn into realities
You are a gem so bright
Your face is alight
With positive self-esteem
Like an African queen
You are a delight to know
Not only as a mother have I said so
You are made of high quality
Notches above the dollar-store variety
You know how to be a friend
You are there to the end
You’re kind and generous
With humility that’s top-notch
It’s my privilege to be your parent
A precious gift heaven sent
You are a valuable teacher
On how to be a mother better
I wish you clarity of thought
Wisdom that can’t be bought
Understanding to know your real worth
On this date of your birth
Keep to the path of your dream
No matter how challenging it may seem
If you dream it, you can achieve it
If you believe it you will create it.
Love, mom
