In memory of my mother, Jacqueline
___________________
Mother had me when she was just a young woman,
at birth I was her baby- then her girl;
but, things soon changed,
I became- friend.
We talked and shopped, gardened, laughed and we took short trips,
mother had an adventurous spirit;
we spent many long hours on country roads,
it was fun to get lost and find a special place.
I often ask God why he took
my mother, so young to Heaven?
But, still treasure
those sweet moments !
