Dearest Mommy
When you wonder the meaning of life and love
Know that I am with you,
Close your eyes and feel me kissing you
in the gentle breeze across your cheek.
When you begin to doubt that you shall ever
see me again. Quiet your mind and hear me,
I am in the whisper of the heavens.
Speaking of your love.
When you lose your identity
When you question who
you are and where you are going,
Open you heart and see me.
I am the twinkle in the stars
smiling down upon you,
Lighting the path for your journey.
When you awaken each morning
Not remembering your dreams
But feeling content and serene
Know that I was with you--
Filling your night with thoughts of me.
When you linger in the remnant pain
Wholeness seeming so unfamiliar
Think of me and Know that I am with you
Touching you through the shared
tears of a gentle friend Easing the pain.
As the sunrise illuminates the desert sky
In the breathtaking glory, awaken your spirit.
Think of our time, all too brief,
but ever brilliant. When you were certain of us,
together. When you were certain of your destiny
Know That God created that moment in time,
Just for us, Dearest Mommy,
I am with you always
