A Cherished Mother

My mother has gone to be with Jesus, now.
She was the epitome of those that loved Him.

My mother raised five children who she adored.
Her work was never complete, her children's needs she had to meet.

She taught me right from wrong by scriptures she read.
My desire was to please her, by example she led.

There were times I misbehaved and a switch she would get.
Oh, I would cry and surely have a fit.
Her teachings I honored and will never forget.

My mother loved me and she wanted me to do well.
She wanted me to be in God's will and not to fail.

I will cherish her memory as long as I live.
She is the example that I pray I can instill.
