To my Mom

It's been a month since the Angels came,

You knew, and you told me it was time.

I've had peace in my heart knowing you were ready,

And up until now I've been just fine.

I've stayed strong when comforting others,

Doing what I can to ease their pain.

I hadn't been sad or even shed a tear,

Till I realized Mother's Day would never be the same.

This comes to tell you how much it means to be your daughter.

All my life, you've been there for me, and now that I'm grown,

I can really understand how your love made a difference in my life.

And you're still there for me, listening, encouraging, sharing...

I want you to know that I do appreciate all that you've done and all that you will still do.

And especially on Mother's Day, I want you to know that I love you very much.

xoxo
