Mother was born in Ireland,
as a nurse she was grand.
'Tis where she met my Dad,
because of this I am glad.
From the war when Dad was shot,
Mom the pretty nurse he caught.
Although their lives were varied,
together both of them were married.
Off to a distant shore a far-a-way Place,
she might as well been in outer space.
Together they did set up-house,
she became the greatest spouse.
As their love grew and their life they did share,
in that house where children they did bare.
She told us of a great God up above,
that never leaves anyone with out his Love.
She did not worry about high fashion,
she just showed others her compassion.
To this she said of all mankind,
race,Color, creed, we should be blind.
So until we reach the final end,
we must treat all others as a friend.
So what more can I say about my mother,
as a teacher and mom I wouldn't want any other.
