 MY MOTHER

I wish to write of my mother,

My mother loving and kind,
Who to me, more than any other,
Is the idol of my mind.

She cared for me in my girlhood

With a care that can never be told
And that love in the years of womanhood
Is even more precious than gold

20XX presentation title 4

 MY MOTHER

I was often wayward and reckless,

But she loved me just the same;
And when I was cruel and heartless
Her heart condoned the same.

No task was too great for her fingers;

Now, they're wrinkled, twisted and bent;
Ah, my memory fondly lingers
Oh her ministries, heaven sent.

Her beautiful raven tresses

Are fading to winter's gray,
But the weal of her caresses
Grows greater everyday.

20XX presentation title 5

 MY MOTHER

Her face, like an angel's, grow brighter

With the passing of the years,
And her voice makes the dark places lighter
As she wipes away my tears.

My mother, my beautiful mother,

Thank God for your life sublime,
You have taught us sisters and brother,
The noblest lesson of time.

That for others our lives should be given

That our actions should always be right;
Your reward is secured up in heaven,
A crown in the mansion's light.

 AIR CASTLE

My life’s tomorrow beckons me

From distant mountains high and low;
My future seems a boundless sea,
Where moving passions come and go.

Deep in my heart ambition dwells;

He cheers me up the highland,
And guide me through the hills and dells
Where I pass the busy day.

20XX presentation title 7

 AIR CASTLE

I cannot write with Shakespeare’s pen,

But I can love with Shakespeare’s heart;

I love his skill his craft of men,

His mastery of poet’s art.

I do not care for fame, as he,

Enthroned was like unto a god:

The depths he reached are dark to me.

But I will grope the ways he tried.

20XX presentation title 8

 AIR CASTLE
I wear achievement’s coronet.

For best are they who see things done!

And all my cares I soon forget

When I have wrought my work alone.

If I be met by adverse fate,

And all my dreams but in vain;

Then, must I work the harder yet

With high resolve to try again.
