" Letting Go "


 


It’s hard


To let go


Of


Something


So close to your heart


Not even Death


Can pull it apart


Not even


The love of another


Can make it disappear from your heart


Because it wanders everywhere


Pleased with what little it gets


When stings are not too hard


It’s the love of a 


Mother

This will be my 3rd Mother's Day without Mom...but really-she is so in my heart it will be beautiful.
I've tried to explain that when a mother is in your life and your heart- her presence in your life drowns out her presence in your heart...and that is how it should be.
But when she is gone...when her presence in your heart is all you have...you then see for the first time just how awesome it has really been all along.
She is there Tinka. For real.
:)
Happy Mother's Day.
