Until Reunion Day Mama!

Christian, wife, mother of three,
daughter, grandmother of four,
great-grandmother of two,
aunt, cousin, employee,
friend…
You are loved always.
You are forever missed.
You are here for me on sunny days
When the sunlight shines so bright,
You are here for me in darkest night
When I can’t find my way.
Fifty-four seems such a short time
That God allotted you on this earth,
Now I know that grief is birthed
When our loved one crosses life’s line.
I think of you and your determination
See your smile, feel your touch
Take comfort in your destination
Long to speak to you oh, so much.
The day is coming we’ll be together again
When God allows my time to end
Until that time for no one knows when
I love and miss you, my mother and friend.

Happy Mother’s Day Mama!
