Dear Mother you're deserving of more Than one short day out of any long year To be remembered with love and honored For filling my childhood with so much cheer. You took the time out of your busy day To attend to my needs with loving care. You kissed my hurts away when I was young And for grown-up troubles too, you were there. When you were here with me, I brought flowers To honor you Mama, each Mother's Day. It's been twenty-eight years since your leaving, But your strong love still surrounds me today. I would like to bring you some chocolates, Or a babble or trinket to show how I care. Now all I have are the words in this poem To honor you Mama, wish you were here.

This is so tender Joyce. What a lovely relationship you must have had with your mother. HUGS the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |
