Her kiss I shall remember
For all the days I live
Soft and sweet and gentle
Her tenderness captive

I feel her lips upon my cheek
The feeling is still there
Always when I close my eyes
My heart is so aware

Mother's love is so divine
Special gift to share
Deep within the heart of mine
Her breath I feel so near

Though she is not here with me
I see her every day
Feel her touch so softly now
She's never far away

Always there my mother's kiss
I feel it tenderly
Gently as I fall asleep
Upon my brow sweetly

Memory within my heart
That never fades away
Each day it is repeated now
My child kissed me today.
