Missing Mom

by Debi Pick Marquette


This is the anniversary 

So young you were taken from me

At that timeI begged you to stay

It's been 29 years today


So, Mom, as I'm thinking of you

I'm kinda down, a little blue

I do not often feel this way

But once a year, and on this day

   
I need to tell you how I  miss

Your love, the hugs, your gentle kiss

I know you hear me when I say

I long to have just one more day


And yet, God's plan for us would be

Live with Him through Eternity

I no longer ask for my way

But mom, I'll be with you someday
