My Modest Mother

My heart finds peace and tranquility,
When I observe your integrity,
To know that you left me with much wealth,
To know that you gave me prosperity,
Not possessions or material riches,
But an example of honesty,
Sincere modesty and humility,
You led a life of simplicity,
Dedication and loyalty,
On which is my dependability,
To use your life as an example,
Upon which to base my own days,
To live like you did, with sincerity,
And have my soul gain prosperity.
