Like the lighthouse that lights up a dark night, My mother brings light to my life. Like the breeze that stirs the ocean, My mother moves the spirit within me. Like the sunset that brings beauty to the end of the day, My mother completes me. There is nothing more beautiful than the love between my Mother and I.
