"Your guidance and care, a treasure to behold

"Your guidance and care, a treasure to behold
A foundation strong, where my roots unfold
You nurtured me, when I was young and new
And showed me the way, as I grew anew

I'm grateful for your love, your kindness and your time
For every lesson learned, every step that was mine
I may not have much to give, yet I strive to repay
But know that in my heart, your love will always stay

I want to make you proud, to make you smile
To show you that all your efforts were worth your while
I'll work hard every day, to chase my dreams and goals
And hope that you'll be proud, of the person I evolve

But for now, I know I'm not enough
I'm still finding my way, through life's rough stuff
But I won't give up, I won't lose my drive
I'll keep on pushing forward, and reach for the sky

So please wait for me, and know that I'm on my way
I'll make it worth your while, come what may
I'll rise above, and shine so bright
And make you proud of the person I've become in sight"
