Miss You, Dear Mom

Miss you, dear Mom…you left our lives so long ago, And well before you even had a chance to know The sweet, now grown, grandkids so little when you left… In all these forty-three plus years I’ve been bereft, Living each day to know the special things you missed…of Doing without your presence and embracing love… Although, I know you’re watching, loving from above.
