Mom, I wish you were here,
To celebrate your special day so dear.
I've grown so strict and stern,
But forget you're still with me, in turn.
Though God’s taken you away,
You've left behind love that'll always stay.
I'm too weak to grasp your impact,
But I see you in others who show me love.
Happy Mother's Day, dear Mom,
Sending hugs—warm and calm.
I wish to lay upon your lap,
Let your soothing presence make me nap.
