Years ago, that October day
I learned about true love
God sent me a guardian angel
My blessing from above

Guiding me along the path
She taught me how to live
With wisdom, grace and dignity
Giving all she had to give

And still this day
She shines her light
On all who gather round
I’m so very proud to call her Mom
My love for her abounds
