A Mother's Day Tribute at Passing




You know how to warm a heart
Sweetly- you’ve touched mine
Faith and charity you impart
Giving of yourself and time

Mother, you are an inspiration
This is your legacy
So bright with dedication
…Your passing saddens me

Lately, I hold myself close
Wishing you were here
At times, I hear you speak almost
And it brings to me a tear

Oh mother, mine
I miss your voice
It's been a long time
Without you there’s a void

A shining pillar of motherhood
Your example was good and faithful
Always bringing life to the mood
I enjoyed that you were playful

I miss you every day and night
The way you loved and cared
Thanks for being such a light
For the memories we’ve shared

Oh mother, mine
I miss your touch
It's been a long time
I miss you. Oh, so much!

Thank you Tim for inspiring this poem.
For putting to words so much that is
true about Mothers... and how they are missed.
