A Mother’s Wish
A Mother’s Wish
To be the best in all I do each and every day.
To guide you and show you love each and every way.
To be strong when times get tough.
To show you love is always enough.
That life is to live in peace and love.
And that home is where to start.
Achieve peace in our home
And the world will follow.
I feel it in my heart.
Let''s be the example I know we can
We''ve done alot so far.
Shine your light for all to see
Do your very best
To live in Peace is All we need
And God will do the rest
Linda Lannigan
