The telephone rang, it was early dawn
The birds were unusually silent
Words came through like lightning bolts
‘Swallow me earth! My pitiful plea
Scorched heart set afire!
Inconsolable, I lay upon the floor
With just one wish – to die!
I should have known you’d be going home soon
Your task here completed
He called you by name and who would resist?
My incessant prayers I thought were heard
If I had known I would have stayed near
Now this hole in my heart will not heal
I yearn to feel your soft warm hands gentle upon my face
Massage your tired achy feet after long hours of teaching
How I miss you Mama! The times we shared
Even when our wills would clash
Your quiet obedient spirit against mine-quiet but so stubborn
Yet you loved me in spite of all wrongs
Mama, he called you by name and who would resist?
Of the seven roses given to your care, two, He had already reclaimed
Roland, your love of thirty-eight years had waited for you long enough
The five roses left were in full bloom with new buds soon to bloom
I can only imagine His voice filled with love
As He softly whispered your name
Tired eyes, tears filled overflowed as peace flooded your being
He beckoned you with gentle words
Like a Mother’s arms they embraced you
His eyes said it all-you belonged to Him
He called you by name and who would resist?
All pain dissolved as tears fell away
Through vision dim His luminous face engaged
“Is it truly you?” You may have asked and to which came His reply
"I am the hungry child you fed, the prisoner you visited
The homeless to which you gave shelter
The sick you comforted, the young man you prayed for
The neighbor you treated with respect..."
This one is for you Mama, for now I understand
Wrapped in His arms no mortal would choose to escape
He called you by name and who would resist?
Is she the one? my daughter asks
Of a mom not ready for the tasks
Of always knowing the words to say
Or the one to choose this summer day.
Is this the mare I should buy and ride
Along with mayor, side by side
As the Rodeo Queeen this July four?
I don't think I could love her any more.
She pleaded her cause with hope in her eyes
And praying the mare was the proper size
For my young daughter, I told her aye.
This is the very mare we'll buy.
Is she the one? My loved son pleads
Of a mother once all that a small boy needs,
Who must now stand by and relinquish him
To this young woman so tall and slim.
This is the one whom I hope to marry
And the very girl who will some day carry
A sweet grandchild for you to adore.
I don't think I could love her any more.
He pleaded his cause with hope in his eyes
And I knew no matter my nays or ayes,
This was the one he had chosen to
Be by his side his whole life through.
The mare was a winner and was true blue
To the little rider who somehow knew
This was the horse she would always adore.
She could never love another more.
My son's sad tale is more heart rending
And sadly to say has a different ending.
The wife he had chosen proved not so true
And broke his great heart and mine in two.
Now he has lost the hope in his eyes
And it matters not the nays or ayes.
He has lost the one whom he'd vowed to adore
And knows he couldn't have loved her more.
For..... Is She The One Contest
all the beauty and wonder
a vision of dreams
a natural spectacular
slipped through a seam
making smiles for miles
you lit up our days
as your voice rang out
souls lost were saved
your anger is deep
at the harshness of life
I’ve seen crying for days
for a strangers plight
a heart on a platter
is what you give out
at injustice your rage
cant be sold for a shout
I have cried with laughter
at the oddest times
on a rainy night
at the witching line
I have watched you create
a scripture of hours
I watch as your smile
adorned the wildflowers
I could cry for the pain
that’s burning my heart
I could rage at the night
while I rip it apart
But I push that aside
for the love that I feel
couldn’t be stronger
or anymore real
your a flower on my moon
a star in my night sky
I sit here and wonder
will I let my heart cry
the tribute you’ve given
I send back to you
for the butterfly days
and the wildflowers too
at the ebb of the tide
as light hits the moon
flowers are dancing
as spring threads your loom
all the beauty and wonder
of a walking dream
the moonbeams are quiet
as she slips through a stream
Namaste
Dear mother...Oh how my heart still aches;
I can't help but to think about all my mistakes.
Dear mother...Please forgive me as I forgive you;
Physically and emotionally you know what I've been through.
Dear mother...I'm aware I've not been the perfect son;
But I've said a prayer to be forgiven of all the things I've done.
Dear mother...You know I didn't commit that crime;
If given a chance I ponder if I would go back in time.
Dear mother...I wonder why you were so quick to give up on me;
Was i such a liability?
Dear mother...No more focusing on the past. That won't change a thing;
I grew up too fast thinking I was grandma's offspring.
Dear mother...Everyday I wait for a letter or two;
You've gone M.I. A. and it's been eight years since I've seen you!
Dear mother...Life is just far too short
I wonder where you are because I need your support.
Dear mother...It's not too late to get to know me;
I've come to appreciate family.
Dear mother...I hope this poem tugs at your heart and opens your eyes to see;
How your absence is tearing me apart and it's effecting me.
Dear mother...I appreciate your value no matter what we've gone through,
I love you and I'll always be here for you!!
When God sends down a precious child from heaven up above
He also sends a vessel strong to bring it warmth and love
The vessel that the good Lord sends is called a Mother’s heart
It occupies the highest place at the top of heaven’s chart
This vessel holds more valuables than any treasure chest
A Mother’s heart holds purest love beneath her tender breast
Her heart is tender, soft, and sweet when nurturing her child
But if that babe is threatened then that heart is quickly riled
Only a Mother’s heart can heal and dry her children’s tears
Or hold them tight so late at night to chase away their fears
A Mother’s heart will share in all their sorrows, joys, and pain
It does these things unselfishly with naught an ounce to gain
She cares for their well being with no thought about her own
But she will reap a great reward when all her babes are grown
She'll hear the words that have a meaning unlike any other
When gratefully with all their hearts they say “I love you Mother”
How can you say that I don't even care
about the way that I look and the clothes that I wear
With the way that you look at me
saying I'm fat
and ugly
and heartless
and all of that crap
I've always tried hard not to let it show
that the words that you say to me hurt like a blow
to the stomach, the face, to the backside, at that
And the way that you push me down on that mat with the media
where all the skeletons dance
their ribs are all showing
they wear size zero pants
I'm just not like them, why can't you see?
but I know in my heart
that you can't accept me
as I am; I have to be perfect, you know
But I'm overweight, and my skin is like snow.
I wish you could see me
you know, way down deep
I have a heart made of gold
only you make it weep
and you've made it cold
and what good is that?
You've frozen it over and
you've made it crack down the middle
Now it is broken in two
And you wonder why I rebel against you.
New to her heart and touching her soul…
Before her lies a precious dream.
Completely wrapped up and dedicated to this life...
Her heart explodes with love and beams.
Never before has she ever felt like this,
As God’s gift lies before her… in all her regal bliss.
She knows she can’t ask for more, than to touch her little princess.
Nothing on earth can feel so right, as she yields a gentle kiss.
Overwhelming protectiveness takes over her being,
As she picks up the one who is smiling and gently breathing.
It’s amazing how much love and devotion comes with this blessing,
And how much life can vastly change with its bringing.
She’ll hold her child closely and gently as she sings a lullaby.
Rocking her love… she watches as she slowly closes her eyes.
Her happiness is wrapped up in the little one… who before her lies.
Her little pink bundle of joy… she is truly life’s greatest prize.
Congratulation.
Even holding her hand
Her want in me
To say something adult and profound
Find me the little girl
She fought hard to chase
When she ran all around
Can't take my eyes
From her beautiful finger tips
How her nails are beautifully grown
Is this because I can't look at her face
Afraid to see cancer's skin
Making itself so known
I grasp my daughter in my arms
Come and see nana
Come and say hello
I can barely speak
But in my heart I am shouting
Mummy, please don't let go
I don't show a tear
Emotion seems far left
I don't know why
Protective barrier in place
Of all the people in this world
It's for my Mum I want to cry
I see the fight is still on
She moans about the cricket coverage
And smiles when I make a joke or two
I kiss her forehead tenderly
Begging, begging, begging
Take from me, what it takes to get you through
Mum, my heart started and stops
With you...
Thinking Back
When we were young and before she was my wife
I didn’t know she was going to be the love of my life
I miss those special times that we had
I miss all the times so very bad
I don’t know where I found a talent to write poems late in my life
It must come from the woman I loved who was my wife
Over the years we have had arguments and called each other names
Like little kids playing silly games
In a picture of my wife the sun shines in her hair and makes it glow
To me she looks like my loving angel with a halo
Thinking back on our first pregnancy
That was hard for my wife and me
Some times she had morning sickness
At times she had made a mess
In that nine month period of time
She had fallen for the third time
My heart was divided in quarters
My wife my son and my two daughters
I think my heart will become whole
That day that my wife takes my soul
your mother is your rock,
she has a heart of gold;
she will never tell you
the love for you she does hold,
she may yap in every way
just to prove they really do care,
she sits very quiet
as if she is annoyed,
but in heart heart,
you fill her with joy,
she trys to teach you
about the things in life,
the she condemns you
when things dont go wright,
she is there if you ever need her
and pour your heart out,
for life has treated you badly
but she will say things will work out,
she may have hit you
with a slipper or two,
this was a funny way
to show she loves you,
she would give you the world
and leave her self skint,
just to give you every single thing,
my mother is my dimond
a would do anything for her,
i hope i make her proud
for what i have of her,
i dont have her temper,
nor her yapping to,
but there is no other mother
the way mothers love you;;;;;
