You are an inspiration without trying
just by living your life the right way,
Showing me that breaking the rules
wont make a winner on any day,
With a warm heart and open arms
you accept me for who I've become,
Loving me unconditionally
no matter what I've done,
Your hand was always a part
in the direction my life would go,
Wise and caring were your words
while some actions I would never know,
Because of you I see the world better
as a place where honesty will succeed,
Living up to the standards of life you've set
make this world a better place indeed,
