a steady ship on a raging sea.
a shining light in my darkest plea.
a planted rock in a rushing stream.
tough as nails but sweet as cream.
always encouraging, a constant net.
"spread your wings and try your best,
I'll always be here when you wanna come home"
wherever I went, I was never alone.
hometown girl who worked the farm,
slingin' hay in Ralph Deason's barn.
loves her coffee, cornbread, and butterbeans.
simple is better for her it seems.
she knows what is important in life,
"grin and bear it all in stride."
she's been everything i've needed her to be.
can't believe the things she gave up for me.
today is your day and i hope you know
the example you set, i strive to follow.
And when you blow your candles out
look to the heavens and give a shout
cause daddys' watchin with a furrowed brow
sayin "stupid ole woman what are ya doin' now?"
a steady ship on a raging sea.....the Queen of My Heart, She'll Always Be!
Happy Birthday Mom
