 There are days..when her voice her smile we recall... Like today...was it she laughing just down the hall ? Sweet memories bring her ever near Days her image flashes so very clear The chestnut eyes and auburn hair... And how she danced with such a flair! With the love of her life always by her side ...ooooh but the pain on his face the day she died. They're both gone now....together once more "Is it you?" she spoke..into the eyes she adored. Perhaps they are watching from atop a far cloud smiling now at their daughters and feeling so proud. For Enchantress and Nightshade have weathered the storm Two young hearts mended after being so torn. The loss of a mother at such a young age... One would think we'd be hateful or so filled of rage. But God had his reasons ....though at the time not so clear And, the two young sisters grew ever so near. So, when there are days like today we remember Just how short they become.... when they reach September. As 'their song' comes floating back into our minds Mom and Dad please know..we are both doing fine. You see There are days..like today we hold dear... whispering... "Happy Mother's Day Mom"... while smiling through tears. |

I bet they are looking down from above,too, at their two wonderful daughters with a big smile on their face. This is a beautiful poem, Nancy. |

Thank goodness you both inherited her spirit to embrace each other with the strength it took to weather the storm. |

Nancy, dear Nancy. Your words spoke to the very soul of this reader. I pray with every ounce of my being that both my parents live to see another Mother's/Father's Day as they are both gravely ill. Your mother must be very pleased and proud of both you and Chris as she smiles down from Heaven. You truly are a poetess blessed with a divine gift. Sending love to all three of you, Linda |
