TraElle

I still remember the day you were born

The moment they placed you right in my arms

I looked at your face and I started to pray

Thanking my God that He sent you my way

You are a wonderful gift to this world

My beautiful, loving, and radiant girl

I knew from the start, as I held you so tight

That you were a soul stepping into the light

TraElle, to know you is to love you

Your inner light shines abundantly bright

Raining down from the heavens above you

Like a glorious sunrise breaking the night

I am so blessed, I am so proud

To be your mother, I'll say it out loud

Every single time I see you smile

It makes every moment of life so worthwhile

You are so giving, gentle, and kind

Leaving the shadows and darkness behind

But I see the fire that burns in your soul

Passionate, brave, and courageous and whole

You walk through this life with an elegant grace

Pouring your heart into every space

TraElle, to know you is to love you

Your inner light shines abundantly bright

Raining down from the heavens above you

Like a glorious sunrise breaking the night

I am so blessed, I am so proud

To be your mother, I'll say it out loud

A gentle spirit with a fiery mind

Leaving your warmth and your beauty behind

I thank the Lord for the gift of your life

Through all of the joy and the shadows and strife

I'll always be here, right by your side

Watching you shine with nothing to hide

Oh TraElle, to know you is to love you

Your inner light shines abundantly bright

Raining down from the heavens above you

Like a glorious sunrise breaking the night

I am so blessed, I am so proud

To be your mother, I'll say it out loud

TraElle, I love you, my wonderful child
