My Mommy

My Mommy They say friends are friends forever if the Lords the Lord of them And that friends cannot say never for heavens without end But as long as we are here on earth we will always miss her And if we had her one more day we would all just hug and kiss her She was almost blind, could barely walk, and her side hurt all day long But at 86 she still had a good life and to murder her was so wrong I think that I will call her when I have a minute now and then I am soon aware that she is not there and the emptiness sets in There are the things I did not say, that I wish I could have said I did not even get to say goodbye or kiss her on her head The Bible says we have those watching, who have gone before us So she is watching over us and she loves us and adores us We can’t go back, but it’s not too late to make our Mother proud She sees us and she hears us with the angels gathered ‘round
