Mom

It\'s almost your birthday again

but you\'ve passed on;

Watching o\'er me in heaven

my heart weighs a ton.

 

I remember the blue dress you wore

Can\'t quite tell the shade--but bright

Your jewelry--the odd smell in the air-

And casket all gave a morbid sight.

 

I think you gave us different gifts

But the best one for me is Love.

And teaching me no matter how different people are,

they all deserve love from us and the Father above.

 

I was always your \"baby\", so intuitive

Very astute to your anxiety and fear

But you did what you must to make things work

And I\'ll hold onto the sweet memories, mother dear!
