I never knew..

 Neighbors Magnolia Tree

This is for my mother, me and all mothers. Happy Mother's Day

I never knew about true love,
Until I met you.

I never knew the depth of love,
Until I had you.

I never knew what my mom meant,
Until I loved you.

You my daughters taught me,
All about love as I know to be true

How the love of a mother is the best,
It's the deepest through and through.

Thank you for teaching me mom,
What I always really knew.

That motherhood is a reward,
And my mother is the greatest yes it's true.

Awwww! That is awesome, VL! I'm right there with you - I appreciated my mom but didn't truly appreciate her until I had my own child. :)

the cycle we become conscious of is less understood and less respected the more modern we become....
