Notes About The Poem

Happy Mother's Day to ALL Moms, still here and in Heaven! ♥

Happy Mother's Day In Heaven

How I miss you, Mom,
All the times we spent together. 
I Loved all the times we talked
About everything, even weather. 

Just spending time with you
Meant the world to me; 
Sharing all your wisdom
Helped me to wiser be. 

What I wouldn't give
To have more time with you, 
To turn back the clock, 
Make yesterdays anew.

I was told this would get easier
As time went on and passed, 
But it was all so untrue
Because missing pain does last. 

As long as I live to draw a breath, 
With each greeting of the dawn, 
With each closing of a day, 
I'm reminded you are gone. 

Holidays, your birthday, 
I barely make it through, 
But Mother's Day especially
Because the greatest Mom is you. 

But every day is Mother's Day, 
For not a single day goes by, 
I don't think of you and miss you
With tears swelling up each eye. 

Happy Mother's Day In Heaven, 
Mom, to you with Love I send. 
Only when we're reunited, will my
Heartache from missing you, end.

Daniel Turner May 12, 2018 at 11:46 AM Another touching write, Artsie. I'm reminded of the song by Reba entitled, "For My Broken Heart" and it's words, "the world didn't stop, for my broken heart." Nice to read you again:) Happy Mother's Day!

Jan Allison May 12, 2018 at 11:24 AM aww Artsie, I have a huge lump in my throat reading such a touching poem that many people will sadly be able to relate to. I am blessed I still have my mum but she lost her mum when she was only 8 and it affected her deeply - she still talks about her 'mummy' almost every day. hugs Jan xx
