The Woman I Never Knew

She looked like an angel Sitting there in her bed Everybody loved her She had a great sense of humor They say I am like her I am very honored. She was my dear mother. She was a very sick lady. She had tuberculosis and stomach cancer She left me and this old world at the age of forty-five I was age five Mom I love you and I miss you.
