My ex-mom-in-law (my other Mom of over 20 yrs) passed away on Thanksgiving day (2003). Her daughter Cindy has been my best friend for years and this is for them. God bless you both. JC xoxoxo

Pretend that I’m there and loving you
and I’ll pretend this is ours.
Daydream when I’ve been away
my daughter, just look to the skies.

For there you will find me, as pure as a snowflake;
and as unique as you are, you’ll know,
the colours of the sky are not sorrowful.
It’s a change in our season, my song of life sung.
By Heavenly angels, the hallelujah choir has begun.

Until our day, daydream when you feel sad
and know that you are mine.
I have a piece of your heart smiling,
my lemon-lime girl.
Don’t cry too long Cindy, it was my time.

I took a piece that you don’t yet understand.
A piece of your heart, the length
of your hair. Your favorite perfume is
wafting in my atmosphere. I
fill it with love, drown it in joy,
never forgetting our time together,
the things that we learned, the
things that we know.

I return them to you, as you lay
your weary head.
I place them in your dreams. I
touch your face so gently kissing and
just a whisper...to
wait for you to come to me.

Love, Mommy for Cindy
