You served me so well
Your lovingkindness touch and approach
Was like precious jewels in a brooch
Worn for all to see the beauty you have
Reflected in me
Lilian Sweet Lilian
You gave so much to everyone
You gave your love your warmth
You gave your time even though you were swamped
You did not mind standing in line
To teach those you loved and served
Bringing with you loads of fun
Asking for nothing in return
Lilian Sweet Lilian
Not even a pair of gloves
To warm your kind caring hands sent from above
You were certainly a beautiful dove
We gave you all the love and respect
You so deserved!
You were a special beacon
Shining your light so that none were weakened
Lilian Sweet Lilian
Thank you for your listening ears
The books to read the clothes to wear
The gatherings in your home so warm
Which reflected all your familiar charm
You welcomed us with open arms
Your grace your elegance your smile so fair
You wrapped us in your loving share
Lilian Sweet Lilian
You armed us with tools of learning
And made us think about the salaries
We could be earning
You are so dear to our hearts
You made us smart
And gave us that much needed wonderful start
Lilian Sweet Lilian
Lilian Sweet Lilian you ARE my second
Mother - that's clear!
Lilian Sweet Lilian
Thank you for the times you cared!
Thank you for the lovingcare!
Lilian Sweet Lilian you are my
Lily of the Valley
I palpitate my circles of light and love to embrace and engulf you true! |
Lilian Sweet Sweet Lilian!
