Saying Good-Bye
Today we say good-bye to my mother
and those who loved her can only be thankful
to be so blessed in having known her
because she would be pretty mad
to see all these tears cried for her
Something about my mother
was very giving. She never liked
anyone going out of their way
to do something nice for her -
instead she always was the one
giving to us.
A mother does a lot of things in life
She not only took care of us as kids
but saw us through being adults as well
she never hesitated to tell us
what was wrong or right
We are really going to miss her
and it’s going to be hard
but the things she has done in her life
are ingrained in us
and I know that her voice will remain in our hearts
until we join her in heaven.
An Angel Returns Home
When God sends a child into the world
he gives them an angel to take care of them
that angel’s name is Mom
While we will miss our mother today
and everyday
for the rest of our lives,
know she did not leave us
but that she is an angel
who has only returned back home.
A Life Well Lived
A life well lived
is a life to rejoice
a life that never ends
because it lives on in others
A life with happiness and joy
is a life that makes the difference
and fills all others with peace.
A life well lived
does not see today as an end
but a day set free
to live on in others.
