To Momma Inis

So many are the times you have stood in the gap and been there for me.

In times of my troubles you beseeched heaven and prayed that I be set free.

Our laughter over the years has mixed in the streams of life along with the flowing of our tears.

You have scolded me so many times when in your infinite wisdom you knew I was wrong.

Yet I never once took it the wrong way, but tried to listen and learn from the words you had to say.

 Many were the times in the darkness of my strange and weary night.

Yet all I had to do was pick up the phone and give you a call; sometimes we would talk for hours and then you would pray and the demons that haunted me would be gone.

Therefore Ms. Looney, I dedicated this poem to you on your very special day.

It is a time when we all honor our mothers; those both past and present in every possible way.

Therefore may the Lord God continue to bless you in every possible way.

Happy ‘Mother’s Day’ Ms. Looney; we love you so much.

Love Allen & Jan
