Dear Mother When I feel tired, or a tad blue. I look at the memories, I look at you. I pick your image, from beside the bed. I embrace you still, even though your dead. I look at the love, I look at the pain. Still, all feels lighter, and good again. Just one last glance, and I store them away. I have the memories, for another day. gJ -- "Luck affects everything.

Flyhigh, Mother's never die, they whisper in our ears, they tug at our arms in times of trouble, they let us know when to smile. Most of all we never forget them. They are God's gift to life. Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love (Daniel J D) |
