In Memory of My Dearest Mother
5 February 1941 - 12 March 2014
Five years ago today
You were taken away
How quickly time flies
When a dear one dies
It feels like yesterday
When God took you away
My heart aches today
The heartbreak etched in my soul
No words can explain
The pain I feel in my heart
Today like every other day
I dedicate to you my dearest Mama
I hear the birds sing loud
The flower blooming bright
Our garden will make you proud
Because every seed, flower or tree I plant
Is done in memory of you
How you loved to garden
And make things beautiful
Your love for this lives on in me
Although my health sometimes fail me
We always know God gives me strength
As He will today
As I work today outside
With bodily pain and aching heart
I celebrate your love dear Mama
For you taught me how to care
In a world so full of sin
Remember the promise of the Rose
And each flower that blooms
You are truly the seed of love
That will bloom forever
In everything I touch
I do with love etched deep in my heart
Keeping your memory alive
In everything I strive
Until we meet again one day
I will live my life this way
