It’s on days like today Mother dear,
that we long to see you again.
But alas, all we have are memories,
a mixture of smiles and sorrow and pain.
It’s on days like today we remember
the good times and many there were.
When, so complete as a family,
we lived life without a care.
It’s on days like today we are grateful,
that through fairness, you kept us as one.
There was no sibling rivalry ever
and that matters so much now you’re gone.
It’s on days like today, more than others
we give thanks Mum, in so many ways
For the fine example you set us, and
your encouragement and your praise.
It’s on days like today you are with us,
Still around and making us smile.
And so it will be forever, you know
Each and every step of life’s mile
