Dear Bette Midler, on this Mother’s Day fair, Your radiant spirit dances through the air. A mother’s love, so fierce, so tender, so true, In every note you sing, it shines boldly through.
From Broadway’s glow to the silver screen’s call, Your heart’s a beacon, embracing one and all. Sophie, your pride, your joy, your shining star, Reflects the love you give, near or afar.
You’ve raised her with laughter, with wisdom, with grace, A mother’s touch in every shared embrace. Through every ballad, through every bold refrain, Your nurturing soul weaves a sweet, timeless chain.
This day we honor the magic you bestow, The strength, the care, that only mothers know. So here’s to you, Bette, with love and with cheer, A mother divine, we hold forever dear.
