Another Mother’s Day without You

A special poem I wrote to my mother, missing her as another Mother’s Day comes. My dearest mom another Mother’s Day, here on earth without you, but I know that you are and forever will be by my side. I’d rather think of the Mother’s Days we’ve had together, the laughter that we shared - from childhood up onwards. Baby me in your lap, sitting upon my favorite hill – in Owl’s Head Park. Still remember dad and I, coming home with bouquets of flowers, your laughing brown eyes and delightful smile, your caring and love - that forever shown through. Making each day so much brighter, just because you were there, mom, I know that when I look toward the Heavens, the brightest star I see is the one your swinging on. I know that you still guide me and someday we’ll meet again, so thank you for all the years, all the happy and glad times we shared, love you mom always - Happy Mother’s Day in the world beyond. The photo is of my mother and me in one of the earliest moment in my life.

@RasmaSandra You're welcome. My mom passed in 2002 and I still miss her.

@RasmaSandra You look like a carefree moment of motherly love caught in a moment in time.

The photo is incredibly lovely of you both Sandra. Your beloved Mother was a very special woman. I love your little hat that you have on. Your tribute and love to your Mother is so lovely. May you always feel her beside you.

Beautiful poem Sandra. I feel the same about my mother. I haven't talked to her to heaven in years. Just got so choked up and emotional today since I miss her.

Thank you @KristenH I am glad that I had her until I became a grown-up for all those years since we lost my dad when I was ten. I know they are up above and together again and that makes me happy.
