One in a million

About the loss of the one in a million person everyone has

mothers are the greatest thing
a beaming smile
a heart that sings

mothers are the world around us
protect us from the big bad things
surround us with love
and the greatest thing


there to listen
to pick you up
when you haven fallen
when the bad times are calling

mothers are there
no matter what
when times get hard
when times get tough

a mothers love is all you need
but when they go
there is no more

no more of that one

only one mother
one in a million
fragile and gentle

when they go
that love then does show

I miss my mother so much; I hope my daughter thinks this way about me. Nice job.

a fine tribute to Mother....My Mum is 92 years old, she brought up 7 kids and sometimes with her and Dad it was like good cop bad cop......Mum was always the good cop...I don't think you need the 4th line in the 2nd verse....just a thought
