Tribute To My Mother
Tribute to my mother
Nothing can compare to
The great loss that I feel
Nothing can compare
To the love I had to give.
I often think about the precious
Smile on mother’s face
And the motherly and daughterly
Talk, that went on for days.
She knew how much I love her,
I could tell it in her voice,
I could tell how much she loved me;
I could feel it in my heart.
Sometimes when I felt lonely
Or even burden down
All I had to do is think about her,
And she would be around.
Mother would take her gentle finger,
And wipe the tears from my eyes
The heavy burden was lifted,
And I felt better inside.
My dear sweet mother; even
Though you are gone
I feel that you are free
But your kindness and
Courage will live on in me.
All the things you taught me,
Are kept silently in my mind
And it will keep me stronger
Each and every time
Saying good-bye is something
That has to be done
Losing a mother is never easy,
This I have learned.
If you are looking down from
Heaven and hear the words I say;
Peace is still:
My mother has gone away.
No matter what words be spoken,
On tomorrow or today
My heart is broken,
But I’ll love you anyway.
