Her voice is soft and kind, as I hear it all the time in the back of my mind. Repetitive little sayings that never go away that she'd always say, "You can do anything you set your mind to in any given day."

Her intuition is of the strength from the generation before. As she knew the outcome before I even opened a door. She may have a feeling in her gut that cannot be explained at the time... But soon after I'll find her gut was right and it sure wasn't mine.

She's the sweetest woman I know as her kindness like wild flowers just grows and grows. She takes care of those who are less hopeful than she. Even when she herself may not really be...

Her grace and style can turn jelly into honey
As most believe she was born into money.
She may not be loaded with much fortune,
But she knows how to walk and talk to keep them a wonderin'.

She chewed her bubble gum on stage without getting it on a hem. You see, she was a dancer at heart and a model on the limb. She danced with Kenny Rogers back in the day and fell in love with the most handsome and got married away.

She conquered marriage and two children and thought it was all said and done. Then came another crazy love and it all had just begun.
She married once more to a fast car driver and had her last child And she thought her life would be mild.

She fell in love with the telephone man she knew from before and married one last time to settle some old scores. So you see she could write a book about life and lovers, but she's just the best any of us could have as a mother.
