" I'll be loving you Always. When the things you've planned, need a helping hand, I will understand Always" Irving Berlin "Our Song" ~~ The Poet~~ Last night you held my hand as I fell asleep, Calming me as I drifted off without a peep. There you were in my dream smiling your smile, Caring and selflessly being my mum all the while. Its only in my dreams I see you now, I miss you so. I seem to hear that pretty song everywhere I go. The one we loved, it was bright and showed me the way. And I would give the world if I could hear you sing that song today.

A deep and emotive poem about your mum.. we always miss our mother's lullabies... It is Mother's Day here in the UK, so I thought it would be nice to feature mum related poems.. Congratulations on your placement in the contest.

Such a sweet tribute, fragrant with sincere love with no frills and embellishments. Yes, only once in a while, we have the fortune of meeting our mum either in a broken dream or a reverie. Recently I had a dream when I saw my mom fondling my grandchild and that morning I woke up like a lark full of music on my lips. Enjoyed reading your sweet poem dear Wen.

Thank you sweet Valsa. Dreams can be pleasant but sometimes not so. I have a recurring dream that I haven't been to visit my Mum And dad in the nursing home for months. I wake up in a terrible state of guilt, til I realize they both passed to dwell in heaven over 25 years ago, and I visited them 3 times a week every week, I still visit their graves and lay beautiful sheaf's of artificial flowers regularly. I dislike those dreams. Thanks for your lovely comment dear Valsa

Thank you JCB, You are right, the loving and caring goes on long after our Mothers depart to dwell in Heaven. Our memories capture that love and it fills our hearts. Blessings wished to all those mothers still here on earth loving and caring. Thank you for your lovely comment JCB.
