Single Mother

by Jeannie Shinn - Taurus

Single Mother

I often think of you
And all that you've been through
You have been so strong
Your choices haven't been wrong.

You raised this child on your own
His fathers chances have only been blown
A life so young, grew up so fast
If any to disappoint, you'd be the last

Lucky for this little boy
His mother found him to be a joy
By his side you'll always be
A devoted mother for all to see

You are making him who he is
So when you kiss him, remember this
For all that you've sacrificed and given
You have a healthy happy boy livin.

Reason for writing:

    This is dedicated to my cousin who became a mother at the age of 15 and has devoted her life to her son.  Finished school and went on through college.  A true inspiration to many.
