My Mother

FOR MY MOTHER Today I took a journey I traveled to a place. I saw my mother resting, A smile upon her face. I closed my eyes in sadness and thought about our days. It all became so clouded, It seemed to be a haze. Then suddenly I felt a touch so soft upon my cheek A gentle voice came through the haze it was so mild and meek. A voice so soft, a voice so sweet and this is what it said. I'll always be your mother, I'll never go away, For if you ever need me, I'm just a thought away. I raised you right I know I did and this is how I know. God would not have moved me from this earth, If I had not met His goal. Inspiration: For Amelia Santisteven, my Beloved Mother.who passed away on February 4th, 2007. Written for eulogy on February 8th, 2007
