I Learned From You

I learned about love from you,
Watching your caring ways.
I learned about joy from you
In fun-filled yesterdays. From you I learned forgiving
Of faults both big and small.
I learned what I know about living
From you, as you gave life your all. The example you set is still with me
I'd never want any other.
I'm thankful for all that you taught me,
And I'm blessed to call you "Mother." By Joanna Fuchs
