I'm missing you Mom, not by choice
Sometimes I think I even hear your voice.
Or I will travel over to the Phone
wondering what you are doing,if you are home.
Only to realize as I go
That you are now up in Heaven, I know.
Time passes so rapidly now
Sometimes I even wonder how
Things can go on as Normal like the Birth of a Fawn
Or that the Stars can Shine From Dusk until Dawn
As If nothing in this World has changed,
Time moves on, Re-Arranged.
New little ones here now,
With giggles and smiles, Wow!
I can surely attest
They grow and grow to be their best.
They grow every day
Soon to be 4, 13, 11, and 10, Yay!
One Birthday occurs on the 9th of October.
Suddenly I become very sober.
You did not meet them
Or see the first swim!
The first steps, them crawling
or giggling from within.
Having Grandbabies with us makes it easier, I miss you less
Keeping busy, we work onward to pass the test.
With them to help us this I know,
The Pain of your loss will eventually slow.
You would be so Proud Mom,Seeing us all go on,
Are you Singing in Heaven, helping us stay Strong?
I cannot but hope that this is true,
You always wanted to do so, so now Lead Your Own Crew!
We know you are Happily Joking, making the Angels laugh,
Playing to a Full House, the Rafters ring with your Craft.
Knowing your Pain and Suffering here is done
Points to tomorrow yet to come.
For you see, Dear treasured Mother of Mine,
We can STILL feel your Smile in the Bright Sunshine!
Or see a penny, and pick it up
Knowing that it's you sending us luck.
Miss you so much, Hugs Mom!
