Notes About The Poem

A Special Someone

A Special Someone
I awoke and saw your beautiful face Had no fear, I knew why you had appeared.
I held your hand as your heart slowly stopped Saying goodbye to the mother I loved It’s not easy at all for anyone When someone you love no longer exists That night when I saw you stood in my room I felt that you had come to say all’s well I said “I love you mom and always will” Then you went from sight in heavenly flight.
Dearest mother I miss you dreadfully The loveliest mom anyone could have An angel in heaven As you were on this earth A special someone is gone from my world.

Belle, your poem is so touchingly beautiful. I lost my mom 6 years ago, and though I miss her terribly, I have such happy memories of our times together. Evelyn

My son never realised what an exceptional mother he had until she was gone. Happy that did not happen to you!

Moms are special. When they leave for their heavenly home, we miss them terribly. I still can’t believe my mom left six months ago but my dad’s unending tears contest it is indeed true. Sorry for your loss no matter if now or years ago. <3

Brings memories of the times I took my mother for a drive and stop at some restaurant for a beer and some eats. Lovely poem, thanks for the reminder.
