Maria.
When I see your face I know I can make it through today.
When I hear your voice I know yesterday’s pain doesn’t matter.
When I feel your touch I know that the world is full of possibilities.
Your love is limitless and your smile embodies this.
You’ve been there through everything
The ups, the downs, the pain, the joy
Through all of this I’ve never known how to thank you, so I decided with my words I should paint you.
Your joy is enough to make a man stop his weeping.
Your selflessness is enough for your neighbor to stop wishing.
Your ethereal beauty is enough for me to stop wanting.
You are the joy in my life that picks me up when no one else can.
For that I will be forever grateful.
Your heart has bound this family together with a connection like no other so all in all I want to thank you for being my mother.
You are my sunshine, you are my light, you are my inspiration to write.
