My Gift is You

you came to me when I was

very young

you changed me -

taught me things about myself

I never knew

you introduced me to

unconditional, infinite love

and I knew

we would be

forever connected.

I was  happy

you were born a girl

I wanted - with you

what I had

with my mother

thank you for

choosing me

from all the universe

to be

your mom

you are my

precious treasure

and on this day

I accept only the greatest good

for you
