She was the oldest of three, a guiding light
With laughter and love, her world was bright
A childhood filled with endless dreams
Running through fields, wild and free
At just six years old, with a brush in hand
Her grandmother taught her to paint the land
With every stroke, a world appeared
A gift she held so close and dear
Oh, her story’s painted in color and light
A heart full of love, a soul shining bright
Through every canvas, through every hue
She left a mark, so strong and true
A mother of four, she gave her all
Through sleepless nights and childhood calls
Her love was deep, her faith was strong
In every trial, she carried on
Then time moved fast, the years they flew
With grandkids now, her joy just grew
Her spirit young, her laughter bold
A heart of warmth that never grew old
Oh, her story’s painted in color and light
A heart full of love, a soul shining bright
Through every canvas, through every hue
She left a mark, so strong and true
And when she held that brush again
Dreams came alive just like back then
She hoped her name would someday stand
A legacy drawn by her own hand
She loved the Lord with all her heart
Her faith in Him a work of art
She knew her gift was heaven-sent
A masterpiece of love and strength
Oh, her story’s painted in color and light
A heart full of love, a soul shining bright
Through every canvas, through every hue
She left a mark, so strong and true
Now in each stroke, her memory stays
Her love, her dreams won’t fade away
For future hands to carry on
Her legacy, her painted song

You gave me life, you gave me wings
Taught me how to stand, how to believe
Your gentle hands, your steady grace
Showed me how to find my place
Your determination made me strong
Pushed me how to right what's wrong
With kindness first, and judgment last
Your virtue echoes from the past
You shared your wisdom in letting go
To forgive the hurt, to let love grow
Every lesson, every smile
You made it all so worthwhile
Thank you for loving me, for calling me your own
For opening your heart, guiding me as I've grown
You were kind, with a heart so pure
A friend to all, forever yours
Now the sea will carry you free
But your love will always live in me
You taught me not to carry the weight,
To laugh and love, no matter the fate
Grateful for the love you always gave
Making sure I was safe, every day
You showed me strength in times of pain
To heal my heart and rise again
Every memory, every touch
You gave so freely, you gave so much
Thank you for loving me, for calling me your own
For opening your heart, guiding me as I've grown
You were kind, with a heart so pure
A friend to all, forever yours
Now the sea will carry you free
But your love will always live in me
As the waves embrace your gentle soul
I'll carry your lessons, I'll never let go
Your laughter, your kindness, the warmth of your care
In every breath, you're always there
Thank you for loving me, for calling me your own
For opening your heart, guiding me as I've grown
You were kind, with a heart so pure
A friend to all, forever yours
Now the sea will carry you free
But your love will always live in me
Forever in the tides, forever in the breeze
Your heart lives on in endless seas
Thank you... for everything

Five days before your birthday came
The stars fell down, and nothing was the same
You were young, too soon to go
Still had so much love we didn’t show
The days went by, we took it for granted
Told ourselves there’d always be tomorrow
But now we’re here, with hearts so heavy
Wishing we’d said goodbye, feeling so empty
Too soon, too far, you slipped away
The words we needed, we couldn’t say
I love you, Mom, I should’ve said it more
Now all we have are memories to adore
We couldn’t visit enough, we couldn’t hold your hand
But in our hearts, you’ll forever stand
Children, grandchildren, family and friends
We’re left to carry on without you, till the end
The house is quiet, your chair’s now still
But your spirit’s here, guiding us still
We thought we had time, more days to give
But life is fragile, it slips and shifts
We’ll hold you close in every tear
And remember you, year after year
Too soon, too far, you slipped away
The words we needed, we couldn’t say
I love you, Mom, I should’ve said it more
Now all we have are memories to adore
We couldn’t visit enough, we couldn’t hold your hand
But in our hearts, you’ll forever stand
The love you gave, it’s still alive
In every laugh, in every cry
We carry on, but we feel the ache
Wishing you were here, just one more day
Too soon, too far, you slipped away
The words we needed, we couldn’t say
I love you, Mom, I should’ve said it more
Now all we have are memories to adore
We couldn’t visit enough, we couldn’t hold your hand
But in our hearts, you’ll forever stand
Goodbye, but never gone
In every tear, you live on and on
We’ll say I love you with each breath we take
For you, Mom, for heaven’s sake

I woke up this morning, and I couldn’t help but cry
The world feels so different, now that you’re in the sky
I think about you daily, every moment, every hour
And I can still feel your love, like a quiet, gentle flower
You were my strength, my guiding light
Now I’m trying to find my way through the night
I’ll carry your heart, your love inside
Even though it feels like part of me died
But I'll take it day by day
With your radiance, I’ll find my way
I’ll keep you close with each and every step
I’ll hold onto the love that time can't forget
Though you're in heaven, I know you’ll stay
Right here with me, day by day
I miss your laughter, I miss your voice
The way you’d help me find my choice
But now I’m walking this road alone
The path is quiet, but still I roam
You were my anchor, my safe place
Now I see your energy in every trace
Though the pain runs deep, I’ll be strong
And carry you with me, all along
But I'll take it day by day
With your radiance, I’ll find my way
I’ll keep you close with each and every step
I’ll hold onto the love that time can't forget
Though you're in heaven, I know you’ll stay
Right here with me, day by day
I know that you’re watching, guiding from above
Wrapping me in your endless love
And though I’m grieving, I’ll keep holding on
Because you gave me the courage to carry on
So I'll take it day by day
With your radiance, I’ll find my way
I’ll keep you close with each and every step
I’ll hold onto the love that time can't forget
Though you're in heaven, I know you’ll stay
Right here with me, day by day
I’ll take it day by day…
With your love, I’ll find my way…
And I’ll carry you in every step I take
In my heart, you’ll always stay
Day by day…
I’ll find my way

She held a brush like a poet holds a pen
Colors dancing on the canvas once again
Yellow flowers, skies so deep
Every stroke, a memory we keep
Four grieving hearts she left behind
But in her art, she’s still alive
A mother’s touch, a gentle grace
Now we see her in every painted place
She paints yellow sunflowers, purple skies
A burst of love that never dies
Though she's gone, her colors remain
Her legacy shines through the rain
The laughter still lingers in the halls
Her voice like music, soft yet strong
And though the world feels colder now
Her bright hues still show us how
She paints yellow sunflowers, purple skies
A burst of love that never dies
Though she's gone, her colors remain
Her legacy shines through the rain
Every sunset, every dawn
We see her colors carry on
Not just in frames, but in our hearts
She never left, she’s never far
She paints yellow sunflowers, purple skies
A burst of love that never dies
Though she's gone, her colors remain
Her legacy shines through the rain
So we hold her close in every hue
Purple dreams and golden truths
A mother, an artist, forever free
Her love still shines in you and me
