Jacqueline, My Mother, My Hero
You are my hero forevermore-forever
because you did not give up never-never;
Mom, you are my hero:
so brave with courage and kindness ever !
You were sick for years but never complained
life was hard and there were days strained;
Mom, you will always be my hero:
and each day you were joyful and not constrained !
Though you had to carry heavy oxygen tanks
we went on many adventures- so thanks;
oh, yes Mom, you are my hero:
and we talked lots with you filling in the blanks !
And when the end came you said let me go
your Dad is waiting up above- you know;
Mom you are my hero:
I whispered okay- oh, what a dagger blow !
I am so proud to be your daughter Mom
because of your grace now I am a girl calm;
I want to be like my hero:
and as you died I held your hand in my palm !
