Don't Cry

Mommy, Mommy-- please don’t cry. Here I am, by your side. You can’t feel me, you can’t see, but in your heart, I will always be. Now dry your eyes and rest awhile, holding me in your mind, remembering me with a smile. Alesia Leach © 2/2015

ps... You are right about the syllables. I will check the count tonight. I'll be back... Thank you. I like it when a poet takes his or her time, on my poems.

Hi Alesia, I'm deeply moved by this poem. I lost both my mothers, so never will I ask them not to cry, I am the one who cries now.... Anyways, Love the poem.... LINDA
