The Light - A Mother's Love
Sissy was like every girl
That dreamed of her Prince Charming
But then one day he up and left
And life became alarming
She had four boys
From nine to three
Now what was she to do
The life that she had planned so carefully
Must now begin anew
The house the car the swimming pool
Right down to every letter
But that had all just gone away
And now only God knew better
She was bent
She was broken
How was she to know
That through her Faith
The Spirit worked
To help those young boys grow
The path was hard
And full of doubt
At times no food or heat
But Sissy was committed now
And would never taste defeat
She begged and borrowed
Scratched and clawed
Whatever was required
Her boys came first
No matter what
Even when she tired
Mom loved hard
And we would fight
She called us Dirty Dogs
But all along she was there just
Guiding us toward
The Light
With Love,
Coach K
