    TO MOTHER

    “I’ll be with you forever”, you would always say;

    Well forever is ending, just any day.

    The reaper wants his dues and we each must pay;

    Though for a season, we hold him at bay.


    He is standing, waiting, for one I hold most dear;

    Though the suffering is great, you have shown no fear.

    I have yet to see you shed a single tear;

    Your strength will carry me through each and every year


    And when you go into God’s arms above;

    Soaring and sailing like a pure white dove.

    You will be in our hearts and we shall think of;

    Mama, is the prettiest flower in God’s garden of love


    “I’ll be with you forever”, you would always say;

    You were right mama. Forever doesn’t end, this or any day.

    You are truly a man with a heart and soul. Your poetry reflects that you have deep human emotion for those you love and not afraid to express that and I like that.

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
