On this day as you celebrate your birthday,
my best wishes to you, mother, I dedicate,
greetings filled with all the praise only you deserve,
my dear mother, my dear friend.
For as long as I remember, so loving and so kind,
so patient and so tender, you make my pains feel mild.
Your hands are always present to walk me through the way.
You spell the words I long to hear that always make my day.
"Thank you, Mum," for all you give,
"Thank you, Mum," for all your time,
"Thank you, Mum," for all your kindness,
"Thank you, Mum," for all your love that is endless.
You are to me and you will always be,
the loving mother with an open heart,
the caring friend with a lending hand,
you are my one and only latest trend.
From the bottom of my heart I send you my message with love,
only the very best that a mother like only you can claim,
for I have the best in life through you, I thank God,
for I am blessed and privileged because you are my mum!
Thank you, Mum,
best wishes, Mum,
I love you, Mum.
On Her 60th Birthday
To My Mother
