On the lovely first day in May
My mother gave birth to a sweet little baby
May 9th was her wedding
A day of blessing

In May she celebrated Mother's Day
And the three children with whom she would play
May 16 was the day of her birth
One of the most special times bringing us to this earth

In May she saw me receive Holy Communion
Knowing it was a Holy union
In May she saw me graduate
She was full of joy on each date
