Remembering Mum

Happy Mothers day is here once more

But on this special day, I softly mourn,

For my mother is home with the angels

Where her heart has been re- born.

I try to keep my brightest smile

For those around to know,

But deep inside there`s a little cry

For I miss my mother so.

I`d love to sit again and hold her hand

As I am lonesome for her all the while ,

But I`m also glad for her to be in heaven

Restored with her sweet smile.

I know God took her when His time was right

So no more suffering she would see,

The burdens of her mother heart

Are gone eternally.

How I cherish all the special ways

She poured forth of her tender love,

Giving selflessly, dear Mum , now resting

Rewarded in her Lord Above.

Dear Mother of mine, I may be sad today

Missing the one that I adore,

But one day soon we`ll be together

Close, just as we were before.
