WHEN YOUR MOM NO LONGER WITH YOU THIS MOTHER'S DAY


                                 
When you need mom most, don't forget she's still a part of you.
Your mother is always with you...
She's the whisper of the leaves
as you walk down the street.
She's the smell of bleach in
your freshly laundered socks.
She's the cool hand on your
brow when you're not well.
Your mother lives inside
your laughter. She's crystallized
in every tear drop...
She's the place you came from,
your first home.. She's the map you
follow with every step that you take.
She's your first love and your first heart
break....and nothing on earth can separate you.
Not time, Not space...
Not even death....
will ever separate you
from your mother....
You carry her inside of you....

             
When you just can't express how much you miss her...
Sometimes I catch myself 
Thinking, "When I phone,
I can talk of this or that!" 
Then remember, I'm alone.
She was always there 
To answer my calls - 
To listen to my "small talk" 
Or when I climbed the walls.
At times, I didn't feel like talking 
And somehow, she understood - 
Didn't say she wished I'd call 
Or make me feel like I should.
Now, I wish I would have 
More times, to show I cared - 
To say, just how important 
Were, all those times we shared.
I could have shown my love 
So much more than I did - 
I never, did it enough 
Even when I was a kid.
Now it's too late to do or say 
All those things I wish I had - 
No way to ease the pain inside 
When my heart is sad.
She was my "anchor" to this life - 
The "rock", that I clung to - 
The place, where I could turn 
When, nowhere else would do. 
Now, the ravages of time 
Have worn my "rock" away - 
And all I have to cling to 
Are memories of yesterday.
