Mom Another year ye have lived, Through the sorrows and dismays. But now it is time to wake up And breathe the air of a fresh new day. For life can only get better After ye’ve experienced thee worst. And the worst ye have been through The better this life shall burst. Life has dealt ye so little of late, Yet ye have made it through the fray. Ye have been through thee worst Surrounded on all sides but never giving way. This be a testimony, A testimony of thine will. Ye have been through a year of hell, And have come out bearing no ills. Ye are my one and true role model I would live a hundred lives and never compare. Yet for now though I give ye my love. For ye are my mother, for whom I care. Jim Aman
