Love You Mom

LOVE YOU MOM
        "a treasure is the gift of a mother's love"
       .The day you passed my heart shattered.
  My lifes a mess and feels like it doesn't matter.
         Your not here to make things right.
               So I feel so alone at night.
    If only I could hear your own words spoken.
         My heart would no longer be broken.
      Oh my sweet mama I miss you so much.
 Your arms holding me with that mothers touch.
      There is no answer for the question WHY?.
               Your passing is why we cry.
Everyday I see something that reminds me of you.
     Roses,coffee,newspaper and morning dew.
        My memories of you I will always keep.
                A place in my heart so deep.
                                  Teresa Skyles   26-Aug-11

a very moving and touching piece from the depths of your heart Teresa and I feel exactly the same way .. my Mom will be gone three years this Thanksgiving and it still hurts and feels empty the space where she filled...such an enchanting piece filled with precious memories.. I am sure u are the same kind of Mother ... as I try to be for my sons.too my friend..good luck.. Constance will surely be touched..
