MOTHER III

You gave her life
One summer's day
And cried for her
In your special way

You taught her it all
From A to Z
But best of all
You believed in her

You said "I'm special"
One of a kind
She seldom thanked you
But you didn't mind

You opened her up
And tore down her wall
You're the only one
Who knew her at all

You've been there for her
Her whole life through
So in her own special way
She's saying thank-you
