MOTHER’S DAY 1997


As I sit beside the headstone of my mother and my friend
The thoughts and mixed emotions of my childhood then begins
The nights we sat and watched tv, the day we flew the kite
All the times we sat at the lake The sun it was so bright
The days we looked for clovers The day you planted trees
Now I sit in sorrow upon a bended knee
For you are all gone and my tears have flown
Yet in my mind I’m not yet free
I wish to feel your loving arms wrapped tightly around me
It’s mother’s Day; you’re in heaven & I’m stuck here on earth
Remembering the good times and all that they are worth.
