Mum

I Thought of you with love today,
that is nothing new
 I thought about you yesterday, 
all the days before that too
 I think of you in silence,
 I often speak your name
 All I have are memories and a picture in a frame
. Your memory is a keepsake, with which I'll never part

 God has you in his keeping, I have you in my heart.

Hi! Somehow I feel that you wrote this poem for me. All I have left of my mom is a photo as well. I miss her so. This is a beautiful poem.
