BEAUTIFUL ANGEL

HER SOUL BURNS BRIGHTER THAN THE SUN,
THROUGH OLD EXTERIOR HER GLOW TRICKS EYES TO SEE YOUTHFUL ONE.
THE MAGIC OF THE GENTLE LIFE GIVER TOUCHES EVERY HEART,
AND THOUGH SHE SACRIFICED PART HER OWN,
JOY IS WHAT I SEE WHEN SHE'S WATCHING ME.

BEAUTIFUL IN HER DAY AND MAGNIFICENT IN HER AGE,
STILL STIRRING MEN'S HEARTS, TO THOUGHTS OF ROMANTIC FORAY.
NONE SO COMFORTING THAN THE VOICE OF REASONING TAMED,
BROUGHT FORTH FOR CONSOLATION,
TO HELP ME MAKE MY WAY.
SHE GUIDES ME IN MY DARKNESS AND HELPS ME SEE THE LIGHT,
A HELPING HAND FOR MY INNER LOST CHILD,
SHE ALWAYS MAKES IT RIGHT.

AND WHEN SEAS MAKE CALM AGAIN,
AND WATERS SAFE TO PLAY.
LAUGHTER FILLS CONVERSATIONS LONG CALL,
AND THE DISTANCE FALLS AWAY.

I WILL LOVE YOU TILL THE DAY I'M GONE,
GONE FROM MORTAL SHORE.
AND SEARCH FOR YOUR GUIDE LIGHT,
IN THE OCEANS OF TIME.
AND TOGETHER WE WILL BE ONCE MORE.

FOREVER GRATEFUL TO MY GIVER OF LIFE,
YOU'VE CARRIED ME AND GUIDED MY WAY.
THROUGH PAIN AND SEPARATION AND MOMENTS OF GRIEF,
YOU ALWAYS KNOW JUST WHAT TO SAY.

MY BEAUTIFUL MOTHER,
SO GLAD YOU ARE MINE.
I WILL LOVE YOU THROUGH DISTANCE,
AND FOREVER LOVE YOU THROUGH TIME.
