21. Remembering My Mother
My mother seems so far away from me
On that beautiful white shore across the sea.
Yet I remember love's soft glow upon her face
And the feel of her touch and tender embrace.
My mother seems so far away from me
On that beautiful white shore across the sea.
Yet I remember love's soft glow upon her face
And the feel of her touch and tender embrace.
The poem is really nice. I lost my mother 23/12/2016,16 days after my birthday. Too sad she was still admitted in the hospital on my birthday. I felt like cursing that day, but I had to be...

You look back on memories you forgot you had,
And at times you'll smile even though it hurts so bad.
Your mother is a special woman, and no one can take her place.
My sister-in-law was suddenly snatched from us by the cruel hands of death leaving behind my brother and four young children. Her sudden death is a big blow for both families. I was extremely...

Mommy Dearest you will always be
My mother so loving and so loved by me
For God has taken you to be by his side
Now in Heaven is where you will reside
I love this poem, I was looking for a poem to place on my Facebook page in remembrance of my Mom on mother's day and what would have been her upcoming birthday
A face that is always on my mind,
A smile I have seen a million times.
Two eyes that would light up the sky at night,
One last battle you could not fight.
I loved your poem soo much. I lost my mom to cancer on December 27, 2015. It's been 13 months without her. The pain is unbearable. It's killing me every moment. I want to talk to her. Want to...
I held her hand as she silently whispered her goodbye
A last breath as I watched her die
Her skin swollen-battered and bruised
By all the things that they felt they needed to use
On April 18, 2017 my mom was called to be with our Lord. It was early Tuesday morning when I arrived at the hospital to relieve my sister from the overnight vigil. I said goodbye to my sister...
Every time I smile,
Every time I sigh,
I think of your face,
And a tear escapes my eye.
This poem is really beautiful. I know the pain of losing mom. I lost my mom 2 years ago, but it still feels like yesterday. It was sudden death due to heart attack, and it was so sudden that...
Mom, it's been over a year now since
God and His angels called you away.
Oh, how the angels rejoiced as you walked
Through those pearly gates that day!
I also lost my mother last February 7, 2017. She died from colon cancer. When she was at the hospital I was always thinking what life would be like without a mother. I’ll always remember the...
You can't prepare for this:
the DNR in red letters,
last rites over,
the monitors off,
Dear Mary - your poem resonated with my experience of losing my mum (Sept 11) hugely. I'm so sorry we and others have gone through this. I was looking today for something to comfort me as I...
Mom,
The day you died I kissed your face four times.
After you died I held you close to me.
I knew it would be the last time I held you for the rest of my life.
My mom died in 2014. She had cancer. We fought the battle for almost 2 years. During the final 6 weeks of my mom's life she slept a lot, but the last 2 weeks my sister and I stayed next to...
There is this wound; it hurts so bad.
It always appears when I am sad.
No matter what I do, it won't go away.
It's in my heart where it will always stay.
Sherry,
Today is the one year anniversary of my own mother's passing - Sept 20. I read your note. I feel your pain. No one is like our mother!! We have so many memories that bind us to her....
Though it's been years now
since you were taken away,
the memories are still strong,
and I wish you were here today.
It's been 20 whole years since you left, mum, but it still feels like yesterday. Twenty years without you have not been easy. There are times I really want to talk to you about the things...
With every beginning there has to be an end.
It's simple, so why can't I fathom it, comprehend?
No words can describe how much you are missed.
They are not in the dictionary; they simply don't exist.
I feel I should have listened closer
To what you had to say.
I promise to you that I would
If I could have just one more day.
I know how you feel. I lost my biological mom to cancer that started off as cervical cancer and then spread to her brain. I was taken away from her at the age of 2 months and got visitation...
Thank you, Mother, for all that you have done.
You took great care of your daughters and sons.
You loved us all from the very start
My mother gave birth to two boys: Stephen and me. She was our source of joy. She used to joke to us when she felt we were down. She used to motivate us and also challenged us to embrace...
There is this special place in Heaven that one day I will see.
It was built by an Angel, and she made it just for me.
She filled this place with happy thoughts, chapters of a life that have now passed,
How hard it is without you, Mum, knowing you're not here.
You gave me life, you gave me love, you pulled me from despair.
You picked me up when I was down and held me in your arms.
I wish I were there right now to feel your loving charms.
I hope that some of you can relate,
It's those simple memories that you cannot recreate.
Picking up the phone and saying hello,
Or giving me the advice that only you would know.
Mom, you mean the world to me.
It's hard to live without you.
You were always by my side.
Through thick and thin you helped me.
Mother, how I miss you. You were and will always be my best friend. You left me only months ago, but yet it feels like forever. You stood by my side through thick and thin. You are still my...
When I die
Let everyone know--- I did try
I tried to be my best
I tried to pass a test
This poem spoke to me as a mother. I felt deeply connected by how the author adores her children and how she does not want them to be stuck in grief after she passes away.
She wants her...
A rose so rare,
one of its kind,
love and beauty a mother,
yes!
This just reminded me of the most wonderful Mother who brought us up(12 children) so good and gave us everything, yet she had nothing, but the nothing she had was everything, miss her so much xx
