My Mothers Eyes

My mothers eyes connect me to God above.
My soul knows his hand with her love.
In my heart she see's all I know.
In unspoken knowledge her kindness flows.

An angels vision is beyond eye sight.
In the darkest hour you'll see their light.
As days pass by, I see her fading.
Somedays I know, that she's just waiting.

My life and hers will never end.
She has always been my truest friend.
Theres no age limit to this kind of thing.
It's pure harmony when mother and  child sing.

Her visions obstructed from disease.
But in my heart she always sees.
The joy and pain that bonds forever.
No force on earth can ever sever.

How did I ever miss this? I feel a bond that defies anthing life could do to it. I'm just forming that bond with mine after all these years. I'm so happy for you that the two of you were fortunate enough to share this kind of relationship. I can feel the love you shared!

Breathtaking , emotional and magnificent Robert .An inspired write for a son who loves and appreciates his mother .The last stanza brought on my tears as I have W.M.D. and am slowly losing my sight. With all the aids I use, still able to write. Sometimes it's a bit of a trial of will . I wrote this poem for my mom after she looked at me but didn't really see me. It's ' Yesterday and Mama.' have a look. Your poem is one I won't forget . love it .Anne
