Hard to believe you’re gone three months already….miss you more every day. Love you, Mom ❤ …til we see each other again.
Passing the hours, thinking
How could this be?
So much left to do, yet
You’re not here with me.
Life is a funny thing, really
It catches you off guard
But you find, you can’t laugh
Why is it, life’s so hard?
Days all muddled together
Feels like I’m stuck in a hole
Shoveling dirt out of my brain
Is beginning to take its toll
It’s not too long til I’m 60
Though I find no reason to celebrate
The days just aren’t the same
Since you left, on that June date
But you would tell me otherwise
Life is worth living, you’d say
Try as I might, the sorrow is real
And tomorrow, just another day

You remind me of a song: “There is coming a day, when no heartaches shall come; no more tears to dim the eye, no more parting in the sky. All is peace forevermore, on that happy golden shore. What a day, glorious day that will be.” Song by the Gaithers.

Indeed, Oneta! A glorious day to behold. I know Mom was greeted by our Lord. I take great comfort in that.

Death of a loved one is hard, but I think she somehow knows you wrote this poem for her.

Thank you, Priscilla. I have been writing most of my poems for Mom. I still remember the expression on her face when I handed her my first book. One I will cherish forever…
