Remember Forever

Remember forever the life of your Mother Like her, you will neither have nor find another Picture the smile in her heart the day your life started The joy on her face when you first tied a shoelace Remember how she rose early, at the crack of dawn To prepare those scrumptious breakfasts you fueled your day on How she spoke so gently to your Father, her Husband Comforted him, cared for him, caressed him with loving Then imagine the pride she felt deep down inside When you walked down the aisle with your groom or your bride Remember the thrill that surged through her being When her grandchild on Skype she was surprised to be seeing And never forget her last day here on Earth As she winged her way toward Heaven with mirth!

Yes, so important to remember everything your mother has done for you, this moved me, especially 'face/shoelace line,' - wonderful!

Many, many thanks in appreciation of your comment, Michelle. Very nice of you to let me know that you were moved. It really, really makes my day. (I have to confess; moving someone with words is kind of what I live for these days). Best wishes, Gershon
