My mother should have been 80 on this fine day.
Choosing to admit this, would have to be her say;)
A beauty til the end, and gone far too soon,
To my brothers and me, she hung the moon.
Yet her legacy still thrives,
In us, and in our children's lives.
And I know she'd be utterly thrilled,
At the lives we continue to build.
I miss you my Dear Mother,
A model for me like no other...
I'll remember you this day with smiles and with tears,
But still wish we could have had you a few more years.

You look so much like your mother. She's beautiful. Your poem is beautiful.
Such a beautiful tribute to a beautiful woman.
You could be twins!
You could not have written a more perfect tribute to your mother. She knows. She knows how you feel.

I envy the relationship you had with your mother. Honestly. I wish I could go back in time sometimes. Now I'm getting all choked up. Missing mine, too.
I can see from where your beauty transcends.

Awwww... That brought tears to my eyes. You really do look like her and you have her style too, I think.
Wonderful tribute! You really do look so much like her.
You are just as beautiful as your Mother and so are your words.
We miss them every day...
This is wonderful tribute to your mother. The memories and love she left for you are very evident in your poem.
Beautiful and you resemble her so much! She smiling down today!
Cold chills. So pretty - her, the poem, the sentiment, the legacy. Thanks for sharing.

You two really do favor one another a lot! Beautiful poem in her honor.

A wonderful tribute. It doesn't matter what age we are, we still need our mothers. I was 19 when I lost mine, and I miss her as much today as I did those 42 years ago.
You look so much like her.
I envy the beautiful relationship you had with your mother. What a blessing her memory is for you!
Lovely.
You always speak so lovingly of her that she must have been a lovely, lovely person. Does your Birdie look like her? My unartistic eye thinks so.
This would have been my dear grandfather's 111th birthday....also quite a remarkable human....smiles.
