To my MOM
by Richard Maxfield
3-26-99

Life to me you freely gave
countless times my life you saved
wiped my butt and kissed away my tears
held me through my childhood fears
gentle hand and tender heart
you loved me from the start
helped me grow and learn to talk
taught me like a man to walk
took me in your gentle arm
kelp me safe from any harm 
loved me through the things I did wrong
comfort me at night with your song
countless hours with no rest 
you gave your all and your best
I look back and I plainly see
you were always there just for me  
took my pain and my strife
set me on the path of life
life is not easy and hard to bear
but so easy with you to care
the debt to you I can not repay
because of you I am today
so many more words I try to say
I love you forever and a day

I love you 
your Son Richard
