Mama God is great, for blessing me with you mama Even as time attempts to steal the memories of my childhood. There are not enough words on the tip of my tongue To say or express how you have influenced my life, Making me the man I am today; And though the military has sent me afar and abroad, Please know that my thoughts and love for you mama Will always keep our hearts close; Because not even the mighty waves of the ocean Can drown the love of mother and child And that is a good thing when the heart blames distance. I only question this one day on the calendar That isolates just this moment of reflection, Instead of dedicating every moment of every breath To reflect on the infinite and precious joy that you have given me. You are my best friend, And you and I will continue to share one sunny day after another, In gratitude to the love of God, that will always shine upon us. Marcel |

Your Mama has a son to be proud of!!! No mother could have a greater gift than what you have so eloquently expressed in this poem. Happy Mother's Day to her, from me, for raising a son so well that it engendered such love and respect. You both sound AOK in my books! Love & Living Light, Linda |
