Shine Bright, Our Lovely Mom
In Loving Memory

Shine bright, our love, our guiding light,
Our lovely Mom, who gave us life and hope.
In the laughter of children you helped raise,
We’ll see your joy, your gentle ways.
With every tiny step they take,
Your spirit walks beside their wake.

The brightest star — I’ll see your glow,
As night-time owls begin their show.
Your voice will echo in the breeze,
The rain like tears upon my cheeks.
The magnolia blooms in quiet grace,
Your touch lives on in that sacred space.

Beneath the cherry tree we sit,
Upon the swing your brother built.
A feather drifts — we feel you near,
Your presence soft, your message clear.
The stream begins its healing flow,
Your love renews from down below.
And when the sun warms up our face,
We feel your warmth, your sweet embrace.

When the sun sets, soft and low,
We hear your whispers, feel you close.
When the moon is full and glowing white,
We know you're shining through the night.
And when December brings its snow,
We remember — and never let go.

Of all the love and memories dear,
Of all the ways you made life clear.
The gifts a mother’s heart imparts
Live on in children’s tiny hearts.
Through grandchild’s eyes and baby smiles,
We’ll see you there across the miles.

Living on, in all we do,
Forever, Mom — we carry you.
