It is I Mom

 It is I Mom

 Just a little tired tonight 

Listen to my dad and saw his face 

Watch his video and cry a little bit. 

Then you was on my mind and I felt sad again 

I wonder what you was doing and if you was okay 

Wishing I hear from you soon 

Seeing cancer and sadness and crying going everywhere 

I pray for you and wish you wellness again 

Cry again I did tonight 

Wishing I could see you in the light 

One eye blind the other one is almost gone

 Big print is all I see

 Little word in book i cannot see

 Listen for the phone that i cannot hear 

Waiting for a voice to come on the machine 

My hearing is almost gone

 what do I do 

Keep trying for someday 

I will see your face in darkness

I lay awake Wondering

if you are awake also 

Listening hard for your voice 

Wondering if that you

I hear crying out 

Come to me you can do it 

Let me feel your touch

wipe my tears away 

Then i know you care

 Kiss my cheek and say momma iam here

 I love you 

And i care for you 

My spirit flies when you need me 

Now iam getting older 

Memories not as sharp as it once was 

Mother is getting old

 Mother need guidance now 

Let me go

 Where love exists 

Go where my family waits

 Do not keep me here 

For many wait for me I know

 Mother cannot do the things she use to do 

Now all I do is lay awake

wondering if you are okay 

Crying out wanting to be needed again 

But be young and carefree is what i want to be

 My heart is old 

My body is worn

 I had you and love you all those years

 Now it is your turn to let me go 

Like i had to do

 when it was time for my momma dear

 She was old like me 

She couldn’t hear 

Her eyes were tired and weary looking 

As she wonder if you are okay 

Her heart is heavy for no one needed her 

So please let me go 

Let me fly with the wind

 Let me go and be young 

Let me watch over you high in the sky 

Flying with the eagles so high

 Watch me as i dip and play

 Then see me fly away 

For someday soon you will be with me again 

You and i will watch our loves one together 

Listening for them to cry out 

My time is near 

Forgive me

 But life come and goes for a reason 

To watch our children’s grow old

 Life goes on 

Then life end 

A birth is born 

A cry is heard 

Once again live begin 

Then the day will come

 you will know 

You are tired and ready to go

 Let my spirit fly with the wind 

Let me watch over you 

Let my spirit come and go in your mind again

 Knowing that someday 

I will hug your neck and kiss you cheek 

Then together we will soar the sky

 Watching more children’s be born

 Generation after generation 

Life will be born

 then we all died for the new one to cry 

The children’s grow older and now know

 why we had to go 

Love is forever even when you are gone 

Memories cannot be taken away 

Memories are forever. 

Love from a mother Who care?

    oh momma i miss you, i miss talking all the tym. this poem made me cry. but i cry often, the kids are growing up so fast & i'm still stuck in bed fighting cancer. i'm so scared it's going to be my tym soon.
    you are still needed, you help guide me all the tym. lyk when the girls had chicken pox. i wouldn't have got through the loss of our little John-Darick if it wasn't for your loving words & poems.
    your poems keep me going they give me hope. the girls are growing so fast Lilly brought me breakfast this morning, yes Sammy-Jo watched her make the toast but still, she's so grown up. it brings tears to my eyes.
    momma if no one else needs you we do. i know i don't talk to you much but its hard. lyk when you were in hospital before. i'm in & out of them lyk a yoyo. i'm scared & worried but knowing your here for me makes me feel so much better.
    i love you mom you have been there for me through so much, i'm proud to be your daughter. i'm happy your my mom. please don't give up hope, you wouldn't be here now if you weren't supposed to be.
    you tought me that, god knows that your still needed so he has kept you here. you wont join John-Darick until god thinks we'll all be ok, that we can manage with out your knowledge. but we need you still. the girls love you, i love you. your our family. no matter whether you can't hear well or that your going blind. we are a family & families stick together.
    love your daughter

    The style and tone fit the subject and sentiments so nicely. Like a letter written with great love. A pleasure to read.

    By the way, I see that we both made it to 60 OK. Congratulations. May you have many more

    Sondra, my dear friend and sister, this poem really touches my heart.
    You know your mother well and how she's longing to be with your father.
    It's hard to let go but we must, when the time comes. Your mother's love is shining through this beautiful poem, as is your love for her.
    She knows you need her and she waits, waits for the time when you can let her go to meet her God and rest in his arms and once again be a companion for the man she loves.
    Enjoy her physical presense while you still can, Sis but know in your heart that even when she's gone she'll still be with you just as your Dady is.

    love and
    Dee
