Heaven In My Heart
I gaze into the abyss of my heart
And there I see a warm glow never to depart
A light of love brighter than the sun
Between a Mother and her long lost Son
Emotions we share between Earth and Heaven
On Mother’s Day, December third and eleven
And she's with me today
Smiling for me on my birthday
She’s there in the very core of me
Every day and every night, so affectionately
She holds me in her loving embrace
And in my mirror I see her lovely face
Our eyes of blue have shared many silent tears
That look of love, so long ago, so many years
With more love than I’ve ever known
I pray for a miracle as I stare at my phone
To hear her sweet voice in my ear
Tell her that I feel her love coming through loud and clear
She’s with me when I’m driving in my car
No matter where I go, near or far
From within comes a bright light of love
For Heaven is everywhere, not just above
All my life she’s loved me, right from the start
For as long as I live, I’ll have Heaven in my heart

A fine write and tribute AP. But doh, in UK, your birthday was 12th November as it took the USA date format as 12/11/year. That's: Day of month/month/year in UK date format.
Oh, what am I wittering on about?! lol.
Yes orchi, and we're also 6 hours behind you. 4 PM here, and 10 PM for you Brits. So toss something way up in the air and 6 hours later I'll catch it. ; )
You is not so far along that long and winding road of life. Why, you is fairly young still! heehee.
Yes orchi, I'm just a babe in the playground of life next to you. I've been meaning to ask you orchi, did you help that Neanderthal man find his way? We haven't seen him around.
A beautiful poem, AP!! I can relate to this poem too! I never thought of it as having heaven in your heart, thanks for sharing this beautiful piece!
Thanks for reading Christina. Yes, that's something I learned when I found my birth mother's grave. I knew that she knew I was there.
A beautiful tribute to your mom, AP! And you are so right, they will always be heaven in our heart.
Thanks Fred. So true.
This is a gorgeous and very openly emotional poem. I love the idea of having heaven in your heart- it's a beautiful idea that had never been apparent to me.
Keep writing ~ F
Thank you F. When I found my birth mother's grave, I suddenly knew that she knew I was there. And from then on, I've always felt Heaven in my heart.
A shining love between mother and son so tenderly and honestly versed here shows such closeness can never fade - with heaven held in your heart how can you not enjoy your birthday - - have a good and blessed day dear A.P, - - and thanks for an endearing read.
Thank you Fay for reading and also the birthday wishes.
