My Dear Mother

Christina8

Now with you gone, sweet mother

my heart aches without you near

and there will never be any other

that can replace you here

 

I know you're in a wonderful place

Somewhere without any pain

In heaven we'll get to see your face

We'll get to know your embrace again

 

Please look forward to tomorrow

And know this is not goodbye

God will wipe away your sorrow

So please don't you cry!

 

Mom left behind a love so pure

a legacy of kindness to behold

Passed on to the the next generation, to be sure

A woman with a heart of gold
