Mother and child by Mary Cassat

As Mother and Father
you acted in deep faith,
never questioning or
doubting your strength.

You were ready
to give your life
to defend me,
your gift, your child.

You asked my Angel
to stay by my side
while you worked hard
he was my guide.

All and everything
I was to you,
a reason to live
through sadness too.

You were the sunshine
that never faded away
You taught me kindly
that Love was the way.

You still shine bright
deep within my soul,
you fill me with Love
You are here, I know!

Thank you my Lord
for my wonderful Mom
Blessed the day when
she will take me Home.

Margherita ~~ What a beautiful tribute to your Mother and Father, also. You were fortunate to have such kind and loving parents.

I am sorry she is not longer with you. You must miss her very much.

Blessings to you ... Huggles, Marti
