Happy Mother' Day ~ Yes You Can

Can you love more deeply, a child who sometimes strays

Can you sit in silence when there are things to say

Can you look into their eyes and read them like a book

Can you know what they will say, when they give you that look

Can you pray for strength to guide and point the right direction

Can you do what it will take, to make a course correction

Can you cheer them to the finish line

Can you let them go when they're doing fine

At times I know you wonder, why do I even bother

The truth is simply put, it's because they call you Mother
