The Joseph's Star

Mom I love you, Happy Mother's Day. You are as close as a tear and as calming as a smile. I won't forget you, I miss you mom. God called you home and the angels came. I did not want you to leave, and yet I kissed you goodbye and placed your soul in the hands of God. Love can’t express what I feel for you. You were my only true friend; and when I asked for guidance, you led me to hope and gave me love. (Joseph's Star) 05,12,2019
