I am missing my Mommy today so I thought I would write to her.. these are my thoughts.. (she passed away in 1992) I know you’re around me as I go about my day I still hear your laughter and the warmth from your smile reminds me you are never far from my heart I imagine there would be a proudness in your eyes now as you watch me grow and become stronger with every challenge I know your angel wings will protect me forever and I will love you to eternity but some days I just long for you to hold me close just like today... Be kind at heart....for everyone you meet has their own battle to fight......... |

Ah, dear Roniece, this holds your beautiful heart's expression of eternal love and deep connection and I can relate to your longing. Every now and then the physical nearness is so badly missed, it hurts intensely even after many years. My own Mom went home in Jan. 1993, but she too is with me like yours with you. Love and hugs.

Yo dear RDB, My mother died back in 95 at age 83. She was kind and wise, and she was good to me. This is a good poem, I like it. Love Bobby |

so beautiful and so telling...love this part for what it is: "but some days I just long for you"...to be held, to be loved, to be longed for...whatever life sees fit to fill in the blank thereafter...just lovely... |

Dear Roniece - Beautiful words for your mum. I'm quite sure she is with you and it's so good to "speak" to those who aren't physically with us anymore - for our sake and for theirs. Love Helen |

Dear Roniece that is such a sweet touching poem for your Mum and as we all know there is no love like a mother's love. A priviledge to read it my dear. Love Lindsay |

Dear Roniece, she will be looking over you for sure my friend, love does not die, it lives inside of us and around us forever. You are indeed protected and looked over by her and surely many others. It's lovely to smile with the happy memories, so great that we can. Have a wonderful day Roniece and do take care. Rick |
