Debi, this is such an emotional poem of the memories of your mother. It brought my own memories of my mother who passed away when I was here in the U.S. Thanks for sharing and for making my own memories come to life.

    Shanbreen, I was hoping this would help others to relate with their mothers too. Thanks for all the kind words for it and telling me your experience. Love, Debi

I lost my mom in early September 10 years ago. This poem really resonated with me, as I do get a little depressed each year at this time. Thank you so much for sharing these beautiful sentiments..

    Hi June, it is so good to see you again. And thanks for the kindest comments regarding my missing mom poem. I appreciate the six stars to go with this lovely review. I figured that many would be able to relate as you can.

    I know everyone misses their mom and others and this just happens to be one day a year that bothers me. So thanks again, my dear friend for caring.
    Love,

It's a good thing to remember our loved ones. They are with us all the time and wait for us to come home. They are not dead, merely sleeping. Your presentation of the stairs to heaven was beautiful. As was your poem for mother. Blessings, Kace xx

    I have just past the anniversary of losing my leg. Apparently, it is likened to losing a child. I can't get over the day without some tears even tho' it's been 42 years ago. K xx

    You certainly have my sympathies. I can see why that would be hard.
    Sweetheart, I am so sorry about the fact that happened to you.

Hi Debi,
This is a wonderfully done ode to your mother. It shows how much you were loved and how much you loved her. I know how you feel, I feel the same way on my parents' birthdays and anniversaries. My Mom died in 2006 and my dad in 1983.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Enjoy the rest of the week.
Joan

A great tribute to your mum who joined the Great One above. I have no doubt that she is seated by that Throne with angels praising God. It could be very challenging to lose a parent especially in their prime. Thanks for sharing your world, dear Debi. Accept my belated condolences.

This is very beautifully written and I enjoyed reading it. In September, it will be 29 years since my husband went home to be with the Lord. I surely do miss him as much as I know you miss your mother and I wish you the very best. Patricia.

Thank you for sharing this with us. I do understand and say an extra prayer for you. My baby died June 7th 1982 and around that date, yes so, many years ago. I still struggle.

    Dear Barb, I am so sorry about your baby. I lost one too but it was due to still birth. You may be talking about a full term baby and for sure you have my deepest condolences.

Awwww, Debi, how sweet. I can feel the love you have for your mother. You have faith that you will get to see her on the the side, but your grief is real. I was lucky enough to get to have my mother until late 2018, but I miss her so much, too.

Your poem was lovely and well written,
Much love,
Rhonda

Oh how I can feel your emotions with this one, Debi. The month of August haunts me with how many of my loved ones passed away, including the love of my life. Come October and my daughter and my Mom celebrate their anniversaries too. Your words are beautiful and I send a hug hug and love your way.
Smiles, Carol
