M is for the Many Things She Gave Me

One of my mother's many, many charms is that she knows a song for every occasion, and she is never afraid to sing it.

Here's one she taught us years ago:

M is for the Many things she gave me.
O
means only that she’s growing old.
T
is for the tears she shed to save me.
H 
is for her heart of purest gold.
E 
is for her eyes with love light shining.
R 
means right, and right she’ll always be!
Put them all together, they spell MOTHER, 
a word that means the world to me.

Although personally, I feel that the second line needs some work, overall? I like it.

Life Lesson: I love you, Mom!
