Mom, thank you for your love for me,
and the patience that you showed to me.
Thank you for the sacrifices you made for me,
the foundation of a good life you laid for me.
For the kindness you showed me through the years,
and the many times you dried my many tears.
Thank you for the meals you skipped,
and the times you stayed tight lipped.
Thank you for your encouragement,
you were a gift, quite Heaven sent.
Dad, thank you for your love for me,
and the courage that your life showed me.
Thank you for the years you toiled for me,
to make a good life for our family.
For the strength you showed throughout the years,
and the times you calmed my childish fears.
Thank you for the sleep you missed,
and the times, my downcast brow, you kissed.
Thank you for the times we've spent,
you were a gift, quite Heaven sent.
