Goodbye Mother

Our mothers love was her profession,
A job she could never retire.
in her eyes she held all of her memories,
in her heart, she held all of her fire.
She loved us without any conditions,
In her eyes we could do no wrong.
I will never meet anyone with so much love,
Never met anyone so strong.
You gave us all what we needed,
To help us lead a good life.
I know it might sound a cliche,
But I searched for parts of you in a wife.
Nobody could ever replace you,
It hurts to let you go.
Now your at rest and sleeping
This last thing we want you to know.
We all love and miss you so.
always in our hearts. ***

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts about your Mother through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
