Only Thought Waves Apart (For Mother's Day) Mother's day comes and goes over the years when I chose to think it just brought me tears. All I missed that friends shared with their mom's God needed you in heaven to read the psalms, at least that's the way I believed it should be. I was only ten when you were taken from me a mere child unaware of her future needs and lost in a world with so many evil deeds. I always prayed you were carefully watching and that our hearts could always be attaching. I know now that I have your sweet caring heart through it now we are only thought waves apart. I'm a reflection of your soul left here to carry on I hope I've stayed within reason not overdrawn. I've never thought this hard about Mother's Day but this year I love you, is what I need to say. |

Gloria, this is perfect! This is my absolute favourite of your poetry that I have read so far. I can feel your love for your angel mother so strongly. It is a wonderful poem and thank you for sharing it. It really touched me very deeply. Love and hugs, Lizzie ![]() "Poetry is the true expression of my soul, it is my ultimate means of communication.

Gloria, this is so touching. I was a little bit older (18) when my mother passed away. I guess it is not easy at any age but more devastating when so young. My brother was almost 10 at the time. This is a lovely tribute to your mom. I'm sure she loves it and is smiling down on you! Denise |

I'm so very, very sorry. I can't imagine growing up without a mother, and then spending an entire adulthood without one. My heart goes out to you. Well written poem. |
