I enjoyed this touching and dedicated honor...
Mother to Son...
Yes, they suffer so and bring us into this world....
And yes they suffering doesn't stop just because...
From changing to feeding to later those scraped knees..
Wiping away our pains and tears...
A mother's job doesn't last just a tear.
Unfortunately, some mothers like mine....
Could care less so Brett I admire that you got the 'Sweet of the Deal" and yes she awaits and patiently for her dear.
My latest is similar but Father to Son.
"He Awaits Patently..
Check it when you need a good cry...
Ricky... .

What a lovely remembrance of your mother and your growing up.
I was surprised at the country genre - different from your other writings.
I sent some lyrics to Nashville once for a contest for an April Fool's song, and got a gold ribbon. Wish I'd followed up on it. (forgive this personal insert)
Your lyrics are heartfelt and heart warming which pleased your siblings, I'm sure.
It's a wonderful tribute written with love and appreciation.

My mother's favorite flower was a yellow rose. What a beautiful tribute to your mom. I know she is smiling down from heaven. Thank you for sharing it with us. Mary

Wow, glad you revised this for us as well as your mother. A very wonderful present for her. I'm glad she had a chance to hear it before she passed. Thanks again for sharing it with us.

Family means everything to me and mine. We have a good son and a bad son and a daughter that'd make you scream. Enough is enough you say. Your mom is the best in the world to me,she is bright,cheerful and all work as a team to keep it together . Here now and forever after.

The rose is beautiful. Thank you for all the author's notes, its makes your poem very real. What a beautiful tribute to your mum wherever she is she will be very proud of you. All mothers' want is for their children to be happy and live a good, honest life. Beautiful. MaggieF

A very well-written poem for your loving mother who loved you despite you bring hard headed and don't care child. You realize her love for you is real and you write a beautiful song in her honor.

This was lovely. Is there a tune? Should I have a go at one for you? Sorely tempted I am. It looks gorgeous and the Yellow rose to top it all off. Sadly my dear old Mum passed on up to Glory on the 27th of May 2005. God Bless our Mothers.

Those are the most precious words I've read for a while. I lost my mother last year, and the pain of her loss hasn't dimmed at all. Your thoughts and feelings are mine and many others on here too, I expect. I keep having the...'what if'...thoughts, stupid, nothing could have prevented my mother's death. She pined away after my wonderful father died. My consolation is they are together and we will all meet up again when the time comes for us to go. Very beautiful words, Brett, and I am so very sorry for your loss. Sandra

I can imagine how hard it was to have performed this song at your dealy departed mother's funeral services, Brett. Yet, as you stated, it must have at the same time been one of the highest honors you could have ever achieved. No Grammys, no Music Choice Awards, could ever replace the pride you must've felt. I'm certain it will be a memory you, and your dear mom, will treasure for an eternity.

Quite a story here, my friend, and not an uncommon one for many single mothers.
It's a beautifully written tribute to the nurturing, caring ways of mothers everywhere.

Bravo...well done! ~Dean

    I also made sure she was buried with the original copy of the lyrics of this song I gave her in her coffin so she would know how much she was loved for all of eternity.

    I'm quite certain she already knew, Brett.
