Mom you gave me the gift of life for that I am so grateful.
Love to you was unconditional even if you were tired .

It seems I took you for granted all this time having you try to calm my fears .
You would fix ripped clothes and bathe and clean cuts ,
worry as I was out for the night and held my hand when I was down
You would wipe my runny nose and read to me at night ,
I loved the warm soft beat of your heart as you held me .
I remember the time you and dad brought my bed down stairs,
because I had the mumps like no other kid .
The bouts of Chicken Pox and Measles and other childhood bumps were smoothed over .
Needle point and knitting you taught me , you got me hooked on reading,
cooking and doing the laundry , kind of strange but you smiled and did it anyway . still I learned a lot from you .
I learned to love with no hate , not to judge as I was being judged .
never to strike back no mater what the cost . to forgive if I could and not to worry if I cant
To help when I could , to always be on time and to apologize if not .
Your journey through life made you strong when I was young ,
I see you now as you are,a bit frail yet unbending as always .
your eyes show no fear as you slip this world .
I hate whats happening to you as your life is now day to day .You may be with us for a lot more years ,
still your leaving . So I will sit and visit every time I can .Read to you if you want.
Call on the phone to see how your doing just to hear that voice I heard so long ago for the first time
"Hello you nice to meet you welcome to life. I am your mom ."
