The Touch Of A Mothers Love by Terrie*

Happy Birthday Mom
you know where this wish comes from
another year
another day without you here
never a second passes by
that these eyes of mine do not cry

i miss you more and more
when i walk past your bedroom door
adorned in his love, seated at Gods table
see me i know your able

from his big window i know you cain see
and i hope you continue to be proud of me
all that you have shared
your unselfishness proved you cared

all that you have taught me
when you said i cain be whom i want to be
takes half the credit
for whom i am today
half because sometimes you see
i'm not as nice as you wish i would be

sometimes i am strong
when i feel things in my life go wrong
i turn them they other way
and say Devil good try but i've got the last say
sometimes i am weak
words are plenty but yet i caint speak
thngs kick me in the gut
and i tend to give up
sometimes i am bold
and to many i come off cold
too many times i've been made a fool
and my sharp tongue become my tool

many times i find myself alone
with no one to talk to on the phone
only because thats how i choose to be
with no one around just me
mom i miss your touch

i don't want anyone else to get close to my pain
i do the best that i cain
your grandkida are great
like you they carry so much spiritual fate

i miss you more
than i show to my brother's and sister
they think that i have lost my soul
they think i do not care
for not being there
and for now sharing like them

if they only knew
how private and selfish i am with feelings like this
when i break down and cry
everytime i think of you
not just on birthdays or holidays
but everyday mom
i want my memories of you
to be only mine

the quality time you and i spent
when i took the day off from work
our own little gettaways
from the many problems you and i faced
i miss those cups of coffee we shared
i miss you mom

our moments together
were and continue to be special to me
the day i saw you in the E.R
was the hardesst for me
because it was me whom you remembered
and told me with a big smile on your face
that you were waiting for me
and the others whom you saw everyday
of them you had no clue or memory
i explaind that you were lackin' oxygen
and will soon remember them too

to dad you always stayed true
and many times
someone new in your life
i tried to bring to you

you were content having God as your mate
today i cain understand
just what you meant
no one could ever replace what you once had

i feel the same way about
my childrens dad as you did about dad

every night when i stare at the stars i know
every chance you have
you take a peek and say
that's my lil' girl
with her hand on her heart
my work of art

today is your birthday
another Birthday missed
you love was alway's my bouquet of roses

i send many bouquets of roses
to you up above
as you know the petals are all full of my love

the card would read:

To Rebekah God's # 1 Angel
Happy Birthday Mom
thank you for the love
you continue to shine on me from above
"I LOVE YOU" Lucky #7
