MOTHER

I was young,now i'm old

There once was a chance this never would be told

 She found a pillow, close in place 

Then put that pillow upon my face

 She pushed and pushed with all her might

 She wanted to end my living light

Well now I'm  five and still alive

 But Mother is gone and out of my life

 Well now I'm a young man and life is moving on

 Still no one has told me about my Mom

 I have a few memories,but not so much

 Being locked out of the house

 Scrambled eggs with egg shells and such

 Then one day she came to me,my Aunt, the one I remember

 taking care of me

  She told me all about the past

 My Mother's problems came out at last

 My Father worked very hard,while Mother took her pills and

 drank Bacard

 But life goes on like it should

 Dad remarried and that was good

 Later on as I grew older

 I found out that Mom had moved to Boulder

  Now times gone by and I'm much older

 I have a Wife and family now

 Life is good and better now

 Then the phone call I receive

 My Mother has a bad disease

 I havent seen her in several years

 But I still brake down in mournful tears

  There and then I prayed to God

 Please let me see her just one more time lord before she is gone

  The next words are from a poem I wrote before Mom died

  The time is near and I'm so full of fear

  Know one will ever know what it meant

  That little bit of time that we spent

   I was so afraid that you would be gone

   Before I had the chance to come along

  Your my Mother and I love you dear

 I just wish that you were here

 I ask you god to let here know

 She's my Mother and I love her so

 Please take the burden from upon her chest

 So that she can truly rest

 I dont care about the past

 Please take good care of her is all I ask

 God please let me see her just once more

 before you take her through Heavens door

Well I'm still here thanks to my Aunt and Grandmother and yes

god answered my poem, I was able to spend time with Mom

just befor she died
