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

where you are going

Open your 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 Know that I am with you

Touching you thru the shared tears of a gentle friend

Easing the pain

As the sunrise illuminates the desert sky

In that breathtaking brilliance, awaken your spirit

Think of our time together, 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
