Poem for Mothers Day
Our Mothers Love
T'is better to have loved and lost, is what so many say
Still, loss I feel, an ache within, that never goes away.
Yet, by it's side sit memories, of moments filled with love
Of special days, a happy place, a reminder from above.
I carry with me every day, those memories in my heart
Give me strength to smile again, knowing we're really not apart.
We still can chat, I hear your voice, the answers you would give
Come from within, your wisdom,your strength, forever inside me live.
A mother's arms seem always safe, a hand to dry the tears
I'm blessed that I had you, to hold me tight for all these years.
So though I've lost your loving arms, the memories will always stay
And I'll think of you as I always do, with love on Mother's Dayxxxx
