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.
