Enormous Bear Hugs

That extra special card from you expresses love between us two Love only a mother knew So precious So strong So poignant now you've gone No longer can I feel your hugs enormous bear hugs embraced me hugs only you could do My darling son I miss you so On this Mother's day morn on every single morn Now you have gone My eyes flow with tears My heart so full of sorrow How can I go on for without you there is no tomorrow...

So sad Ann. A fabulous tribute to the memory of his loving bear hugs though. I believe he is showing this around all over heaven.
