A poem inspired by the last twelve words in a song I heard sung by Andrea Bocelli, 'Your Love'...

Thank you
for being there in this world
to comfort us, console us,
protect us and save us
from the dark.

Thank you
for being there in our midst
to encourage us, teach us,
enlighten us and reach us
through your love.

Thank you, O Mother,
for being there in my life
to care for me, believe in me,
bear with me, conceiving me
in all your pain.
How will I end,
where do I start?
Mother, your love shines in my heart.
