I Will Hold You “Oh” So Tight Yes I am your mother a pleasure for sure, you have been the child for so long but to my surprise I see a man now and one trying to be strong. She is now very much a part of you and your first love, now first love lost. I could relate to you that I’ve been there once or twice, but this is not what you want to hear from the mother in your life. All of the times that I could take away your pains, but this one is out of my hands. All of the love I have for you could not ease your pain for she is the one you look to for comfort each day. I want so very badly help you my son, but she’s the one that went astray. Now is when all of the wisdom and faith I imparted to you should come in to play, but this is when you will forget and try to heal the pain on your own. I could say to you that this to shall pass and that there will be another to take her place, this is not what you want to hear or that give it time for time heals, but all that I could possibly tell you would just be tucked away and on your own feet you will walk today and unfortunately again another day. Remember my son when you slouch in despair that I am always here for you loving you in just the same way. Please come to me when it is right I’ll give my all to you and will hold you “oh” so tight.

When a mother shows her heart there is no greater love. You have penned a beauty not only in verse but in YOUR soul and YOUR heart. This is one to treasure forever by not only you but to ALL parents as there truely is NO greater gift than that of being able to feel the love for the ones we bring into this world. |

Hi Everyone, Well I knew the day was coming when my little babies would face some really big proublems, and this is going to be a big challenge for me to keep the tight relationship that we all have. I always want then to know that No Matter WHAT they can still come to me and I will always be there for them. We have always tried to have the up most in communication with each other because that is what I thought was the most importain thing raising children and so far it has worked but I think were going to be really tested now, thank you so much for all of your kind thought in reguards to this poem. Love, Cerenity "God doesn't have to be reminded that we exist. We have to be reminded that He exist!" (Writer Unknown) |

Cerenity- I think the mark of a good mother (and father) is that, by loving their children with everything they have, they provide them with the tools they need to make it in the world on their own. You've shown your wisdom in admitting his loss is something he will have to work through, and in showing you understand why that is. By allowing him to do this, you strengthen his belief in himself, and thereby reaffirm your belief in him. |

Wonderfully expressed Cerenity! Although I do not have children of my own, I've watched my parents sit helplessly by as they watched siblings try to make it through love and heartaches in the big world. If you don't mind, I'd love to forward this to my mom ... I know she will appreciate these genuine, heartfelt words, as I do! Best wishes, /Kit |

This was so sincere. A Mothers Love is like no other. When our children hurt we do too. The best we can do for them is to be there for them in their need. |

I still remember my first love lost and how hard it was to deal with. My mother kept her distance and let me work on it for a while. All along, I never doubted that she was there for me. When I finally couldn't take it any longer, she held me 'Oh, so tight". Thank you for bringing this back to me in such a perfect poem. My mother's son, Trev. |

Came by to print this to send to my children for them to share with their mother. I just thought you should know how much love you show in this and though her and I are not together anymore....there could never be a more deserving woman to have the two beautiful souls that we brought into this world. SO thank you from me, from her, and from my two angels....Amanda and Adam....yesterday was Adam's birthday and this is going to make a great follow present to him.

Cerenity-I have a 9 year old boy and a very sensitive one at that, I ponder these thoughts as he grows, and only hope I can be there for him some day when he needs me like that. Very beautiful and tender read. |
