My Mom
11/12/30-10/28/97

You were the one
who kissed away the pain
Our Living Rainbow
in the midst of the rain

Caressing hands
worn from the years
soothing words
to calm your fears

A family pulled together
in a circle of prayer
it was God's love
that helped us be prepared

It happened so sudden
so much left to do
even in saying good-bye
it was you helping us through

The master plan
another page is turned
just another process
of life we reluctantly learn

In the company of Angels
where you belong
In our heart always
Forever Our Mom...

I wasn't always the daughter that I wish I had of been...wasn't always there for her..when I knew she wanted me to be...Sometimes I got so caught up in my own life..that I didn't think ....one day..she wouldn't be around....There is alot of things that i regret that I did or did not do over the years..but I thank God that I was given 27 years with her...and a few minutes in the end..to caress her hand..and thank her for all that she ever was to me...I realize not many are granted that luxury. She was not a saint..but she was the closest to one that I have ever met....She is my mother....and I've never or will never loose sight of that fact..

Sunshine in the midst of rain...happiness in the midst of tears...The world would be a much better place...if everyone had a mother like mine.....I know..my world..is a better place..because she was in it.
