Forever Our Champion, Forever Our Inspiration
Thank you for believing in us. So many will spend every day striving to make you proud.
This poem is to a woman that was always their to make me feel special ....
To the world, you were a woman of unmatched, fierce grace,
The strongest soul I’ve ever known, a warm and steady space.
But to me, you were the hands that gave an open, loving door,
Who took me in and loved me just like I was born yours.
You didn’t have to choose me, but you loved me without end,
My nanny, my champion, and my friend.
You filled the quiet rooms with light, you always made me laugh,
And leaving track marks of your joy along my daily path.
You made me feel so special, like a treasure in your eyes,
A patient, unconditionally loving bond that never dies.
They say that words are fleeting, and today they feel too small,
To capture such a giant soul, the greatest of them all.
But I can feel the promise that you left inside my chest,
A calling to be strong, to give this life my absolute best.
Because you saw a future in me, bright and deep and wide,
I’ll spend my lifetime striving for the person you saw inside.
I will climb the hills you built for me; I’ll carry who you are,
Your love is not a memory, it is my guiding star.
Thank you for the laughter, for the strength, for being true—
I am everything I am today, because I was loved by you.
