I sat on the sand today Watching as the waves crashed along the shore So peaceful and serene The only sound was the ocean's roar The sunlight on my back Blue skies filling my eyes As I cleared out my mind Just sitting, and I cried Some days I think of you and smile Others I think of you and cry But always I am thinking of you My angel in the sky I could use your wisdom now Your soft and touching way How I wish I could bring you back And forever make you stay I know that you are watching down on me Praying that I make you proud With learning to let you go Peace within myself is what I finally found Today thought was different I needed to hear your voice...to see your face Wanted to be touched by your beauty Your never-ending grace Then it occurred to me softly As my grin became wide That never have you left me Forever, your by my side So Mom if you are listening Please just now how much I love you You are always in my thoughts I carry you with all I do If your ever near earth again Please send me a little sign You're both my mother and my friend But for now I let you go...till we meet again Amy M. Kennedy 2/24/01 "A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart & can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words." |

'Today thought was different I needed to hear your voice...to see your face Wanted to be touched by your beauty Your never-ending grace Then it occurred to me softly As my grin became wide That never have you left me Forever, your by my side' 'If your ever near earth again Please send me a little sign You're both my mother and my friend But for now I let you go...till we meet again' Oh, Aims...I really couldn't express to you how this brought tears to my eyes...you have penned something quite wonderful here. And, as Marsha said, she IS proud of you and the honorable woman that you are. This is stunningly beautiful, m'friend! -e ~~~~~~ p.s. the ocean...hmph...no fair everytime I close my eyes, I see your face, I taste you on my lips... every night I fantasize that I can feel you on my fingertips... |
