A Eulogy To My Mother

A woman lost Inside herself All we ever wished for her Was happiness and health She tried so hard To live a better life Still all she felt inside Was confusion, pain and strife She was a sister and a friend She was a daughter and a mother She was a woman Truly unlike any other She had her problems As we all do But she was always persistant Trying to push her way through She lost her fight After so many years She will have no more heartache She'll shed no more tears A loving mother And a dear friend We all prayed for her Until the very end Until the end of time May she be in our hearts May we remember her beauty Every time the sky parts If everyone could have Just half the heart as she Imagine the world That this could be We all knew her as Diana Some of us knew her as our Mother From our loss of this wonderful person Will truly be hard to recover I sincerely hope That in your eternal sleep You, my dear sweet Mother Have finally found your peace

A touching tribute to your mother, and made me long for and miss my own. Mine died when she was just 46 years old, a long time ago......and I've never stopped missing her, but think of her most every day. Bless you and hold your good memories close. ~ Carrie
