My mom introduced me to the Lord. She would have been 87 today.
you gave me wings
and helped me fly
it was hard
to say good-bye
though just last year
you left this earth
you, dear one
who gave me birth
you’ll always be
a part of me
and my precious
family
Mom and Nan
and Nana, too
all these names
applied to you
i know your heart
is light as air
you’re in His presence
gift so rare
one day soon
i’ll see your face
but til then
my heart’s embrace
will hold you close
though you are gone
your legacy
is oh, so strong
(Today would have been my mom’s 87th birthday. She went to be with the Lord April 25, 2011.)
