Mother

The candle flickers brightly

Illuminating your smile,

And I gaze at your saddened expression

And wish you were here awhile.

It has been two years already

But the pain has been no less,

For we have learned to continue with life

Without your sweet caress.

How I miss the daily phone calls

And the hugs that were oh so tight,

And how I miss your beautiful blessings

You gave to me each night.

I know you are here beside me

I feel your presence each time I pray’

I know it is your love and blessings

that give me strength each day.
