A Mother's Love

A mothers love can be hard to bear To stand aside to see how they fair But as their mum I'll do whatever it takes To allow them the time, the space, the breaks.  Throughout the years I've recorded it all So now I've the memories upon my wall I always knew it could never last Being their mum has been such a blast If i could only have frozen one moment in time Though there's so many locked in my hearts shrine How I miss that patter of their tiny feet And can't wait now for the grandchildren that I'd  like to meet But nothing and no one can take the place of your own And it's hard to deal with the empty nest syndrome But a mothers love has its crosses to bear So I'll just have to sit back and see how they fair.
