You should be playing with your Nan
Running around as fast as you can
You should be chasing butterflies
Not being surrounded by heartache and cries.
You should not have a care in the world
Just doing things as a little boy and girl
You should be making a sandcastle at the beach
Not looking for comfort within reach.
You should be laughing and have a smile
Scooping up dirt and making a pile
You should be hugging your uncle and aunt
Not because you have to but because you can.
What the hell has happened
No one knows the reason why
How do you explain this to children
When all we can do is cry?
Everyone is here for you
Your family has your back and will be there
As you grow up and learn all the memories
Learn how much she loved you and how much she cared.
You two are the light, the joy, the bliss
Laughing, hugging, squeezing, kiss
That is what you will remember
Your beautiful mother, always tender.
Thank you for those beautiful words Lisa!!!

Not sure who this is for. It sounds like a sad sad story but I am going to take it into my heart and use it too
ReplyDeleteThanks Lisa.
