M O T H E R
M is for the million things she gave me,
O means only that she's growing old,
T is for the tears she shed to save me
H is for her heart of purest gold;
E is for her eyes with love-light shining
R means right and right she'll always be,
Put them all together, they spell " Mother"
A word that means the world to me
Howard Johnson ( c. 1915)
