MOM,

You've heard it a thousand times,
But I thought you might like to hear it once more,
Just in case you need reminding,
As you're walking out the door.


Wherever it is you're going,
Whatever you have planned today,
Whether it be you're running late,
Or just running out to play...


Take to heart these simple words,
And let them guide you on your way,
I love you, I love you, I love you,
Not just now, but everyday.

Love,
Your Son

Bonnie, I can understand how this poem must strike at your heartstrings. And how sad some memories may be of your lost son.
Time heals many things, but sometimes what has happened won't heal. I pray God gives you the strengh to feel joy and love inside your heart again. Hugs Bill
p.s. Please check out my poem for Mothers Day: "Happy Mothers Day In Hell."

The man who wrote that would probably be glad if he knew it affected you so. I can relate to the sorrow of watching someone battle with addiction, and I know for a mother is is even harder. Thank you for sharing such a personal story and poem with us.
