21. My Mother
Look up to the sky.
Now tell me what you see.
A cloud, the moon, possibly the sun.
Many answers there will be.

Sleep now, my angel, and rest your eyes.
Mommy must say her last goodbyes.
Please don't be sad, and please don't cry.
Mommy will give you the wings to fly.
My loving mother, always there with your arms open, no matter what. A face that always smiled. Two eyes that would light up the sky at night, until that one battle you could not fight. The...

You lived your life thinking that no one cared.
You thought you were all alone, your heart feeling tattered.
I am here to tell you that you were wrong
'Cause you see - Mom - to me you mattered.
My mum, Linda, was just a few short months away from her 70th (September 2018) birthday when she got the diagnosis that she had incurable, inoperable pancreatic cancer, and the week before...
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....
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
If you see my mom in heaven,
She won't be hard to find.
She's God's masterpiece of
Motherhood.
My Mom passed away about 2 weeks ago. This poem really struck home. When I go through her pictures, I get teary eyed. I love my mom. She is the core of my family. Now being in heaven, I know...
I remember your brave face through all the pain,
The day you told us and I tried to remain sane.
"I have breast cancer," you said as a matter of fact.
Yet you didn't shed a single tear; you stayed intact.
Hello, I am going to die from stage 4 breast cancer that has traveled into my lungs. My doctor told me that I had to think on the time that I had left. Was I just slapped, because I thought I...
Oh Father, can you hear me?
I'm sending a prayer your way,
I'm clutching hard to my faith, as mom taught me,
As she draws closer to you each day.
My Momma was the stronger woman I knew. We went to the hospital because Mom was having trouble breathing. She said maybe a day, and the next thing I knew, the doctors were talking about...
The sun shall rise,
and sure to set.
Her time has come,
have no regret.
My best friend George was the bravest man I have ever known. He was taken from us by the most evil of diseases cancer. Even though he knew he was dying he put everyone before himself never...
A moment passed, an hour, a day,
But still the pain didn't go away.
A week, a month, and then a year,
Yet the loneliness didn't disappear.
I lost my mom from cancer about 10 month ago, but the pain is still with me.
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.
Sitting here listening to music, you're the first person that comes to mind.
When I sit here and think about you, it hurts every time.
Sometimes I pinch myself and hope you come back,
But you leaving me was something as serious as a heart attack.
My mom died unexpectedly on April 14th 2016. 9 days before my 20th birthday, and my daughter, her first grandbaby was 6 months old. She was my best friend, I told her everything and talked to...
I want to know if you can hear me
I talk to you all the time
To tell you how I am, how I am feeling
I want you to know that I am fine
My mom lost her battle with what started as breast cancer in 2006 on December 8, 2010. She went for treatment after treatment never giving up hope. She was a miracle within herself. She is...
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...
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...
You were always a great person
a great person indeed
You were always there
whenever I was in need
Dear Mama, walking and thinking of my childhood days,
waves of memories crashing in, as I hit replay.
You're in every scene, appearing with the morning light.
I can talk to you, even though you're far from my sight.
My Mum passed on the 8th of December 2018 by a road traffic accident. I never got a chance to talk to her about anything and at least to apologise for everything I made her go through because...
A mother's love
Is a gift from above
That is a wonderful treasure
I was so touched by the poem because I lost my mom to ovarian cancer in January 2013, when I was 12 1/2. I am now 17 years of age, and it is not easy. I miss my mom so much, and I wish that...
You had a
heart of gold
and a
beautiful soul.
This poem put tears in my eyes. I can totally relate to you as I lost my Mom 11 years ago, and I still have tough days. She too was my best friend and my hero. My Mom had a heart of gold and...
Momma, I wish you could take me by my hand
And help me learn to understand
Why you had to go away
I needed so much for you to stay
So very beautifully written. I lost my mother 9/2/2012 to cancer. The grieving is sometimes too much to bare. We are never prepared for a loss like this no matter how old we are. How blessed...
